:If someone has a non-unique word list they should pipe it through <tt>uniq</tt> or <tt>sort -f -u</tt> (or wrt Rosetta Code, see the relevant task for uniquely filtering). —[[User:dchapes|dchapes]] ([[User talk:dchapes|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/dchapes|contribs]]) 20:04, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
:: Well, the '''if''' ··· '''IS'''. That is, the ''someone'' is Rosetta Code (or at least, the holder of that file), and the '''Textonyms/wordlist''' dictionary file does contain duplicate words, and it (the dictionary file) is referred to as a possible example dictionary to use (from the Rosetta Code task description). It shouldn't have to be massaged or piped though a filter to solve this Rosetta Code task. Furthermore, the ''uniq'' or ''sort'' (or any specific tool) isn't necessary to weed out duplicates. Of course, that is, if duplicate words are to be rejected/ignored, and so far, nobody has rung that bell yet. I went proactive (for the REXX programming solution) and ignored/rejected duplicate words as it appeared the correct manner in handling duplicates. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 20:27, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
