I do have source to several sort programs but none satisfy those requirements. The output should look as follows a a b abc abc d abcd Extend this for all characters 0-255. The file I wish to sort is ~1M. So something that only sorts in memory will not do. If anyone is curious it is for MOKE, my Japanese editor for the PC. The hiragana to kanji dictionaries from Wnn are quite big. (MOKE 1.1b is available via anonymous ftp from 128.104.30.31.) thanks, Mark Edwards Systems Programmer 1210 W.
