Very fast file sorting utility
.description
File sorting... Hmm... C:Sort does this... But it's very
sssslllllooooowwwww. ARP Sort sorts slightly faster.
- FSort tries to be much more better.
- FSort supports input from stdin and output to stdout (PIPES !!!).
- FSort eats less RAM (but slightly more than ARP Sort).
- FSort requires Kickstart 2.04 or higher.
- FSort is pure and can be made resident.
- FSort takes advantage of the powerful ss.library (also in this archive,
see SSLib<???>.lha on the AmiNet for complete distribution).
Speed comparison: (280K file, on GVP A530 Turbo - 68EC030 40MHz)
original C:Sort 37.3 36 seconds 380K used
ARP Sort 27 seconds 317K used
FSort 4.9 seconds 334K used
All the timings are measured by Stat 1.0 (available in MJUtils.lha
on AmiNet).
