<title>(Perl) Remove duplicate lines from a text file with Perl - noah</title>
<link>http://snipplr.com/view/3124/remove-duplicate-lines-from-a-text-file-with-perl/</link>
<description><![CDATA[ <p>*[Found at Google Answers.](http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=25196)*

Sometimes I get a big list of things, and some of the things occur multiple times in the same list.  To make the list easier to read, I want to *delete* the duplicate lines.
 
A good example is a list of files that have errors (maybe excerpted from an application sever's log files).  In that case you have a newline-delimited list of file paths,  and depending upon the situation, the same file path might be listed 4 or 5 times or more.  Often, it is useful to have a list of just the files that are faulty, which can be produced by deleting all the duplicate lines.  This script is for filtering just those kinds of list files.

[Of course,](http://xkcd.com/378/ "emacs has a command for that")  for **Emacs** users  [there is a much easier way to remove duplicate lines:](http://everything2.com/title/useful%2520emacs%2520lisp%2520functions "useful emacs lisp functions"), if you have `uniq` installed on your system.

`M-x sort-lines RET C-x h M-x shell-command-on-region RET uniq RET`</p> ]]></description>
