This is very memory intensive. Which may not matter if the data volume is small enough. But it is also a bit hard to understand, at least not so obvious at first sight. For most use cases sort -u would be ideal and way simpler to understand

This probably makes 9front the only OS still in development to have manuals in book format. Who else misses those old microsoft documentation that used to ship with their software in the 90's and before? I was never a fan of their comp

I started programming in 1989 and I still don't know exactly how to approach understanding big existing codebases in a productive way. I am pretty well career wise, though. So, don't worry too much about that point. I also hate me
