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.
