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.
