/U Replaces files that are older than the source files. When the destination files are the same
age or newer than the source files, the Replace utility doesn??™t replace them. This command line
switch is a safety feature that ensures you don??™t overwrite newer updates with older files.
Sorting File Content with the Sort Utility
The Sort utility is an amazing utility in that it can sort any text file. You can use this utility to perform
analysis of output from other commands. For example, you could use it to perform a custom
sort of a directory listing. The sort mechanism considers locale, so you can sort data based on a specific
language. In addition, the Sort utility works on extremely large files, so you don??™t have to
worry about getting halfway through a sort and having the sort fail. (Large sorts can take a while
because the Sort utility writes any data that won??™t fit in memory to disk.) This utility uses the
following syntax:
SORT [/R] [/+n] [/M kilobytes] [/L locale] [/REC recordbytes]
[[drive1:][path1]filename1] [/T [drive2:][path2]] [/O
[drive3:][path3]filename3]
The following list describes each of the command line arguments.
