Man Linux: Main Page and Category List

NAME

       unique - removes duplicates from a wordlist

SYNOPSIS

       unique output-file

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the unique command, which is part of
       the john  package.   This  manual  page  was  written  for  the  Debian
       GNU/Linux  distribution  because  the  original program does not have a
       manual page.  john, better known as John the Ripper, is a tool to  find
       weak passwords of users in a server.
       The  unique  tool  finds  and removes duplicate entries from a wordlist
       (read from stdin), without changing the order.  This  is  important  to
       increase the performance of john when using the wordlist method.

SEE ALSO

       john(8), mailer(8), unafs(8), unshadow(8).

       The programs are documented fully by John’s documentation, which should
       be available in /usr/share/doc/john or  other  location,  depending  on
       your system.
