I use REXX to grab taglines, and pipe that through the OS/2 GNU SORT
utilitity that will sort any size file, and will do a UNIQUE sort that
eliminates duplicate lines. Also have a DOS sort utility that does the same.
The OS/2?Unix utilities are in GNUTUTIL.ZIP (GNU textutils 1.9) and are very
good, also the DOS sort is SORT03.zip, also good. Both are freq'able here.

I run 4OS2 and tse/qedit/qeditfor OS/2 (I think that would be TSE pro, TSE jr
and TSE jr/2), and all my cut and paste thing-ees work from the editors as
well as the OS/2 clipboard.
4OS2/32 2.5 OS/2 Version is 2.30
4OS2/32 Revision A OS/2 Revision A
Exactly what are you doing that's broke, I'll see if I can duplicate it here.
BTW, BOXER has a very good native OS/2 text editor, not TSE but excellent
none-the-less. You might want to give it a look-see while semware is working
on the (yuck) Win version. (What would WIN users do with a "text" editor
anyway:-)
