PACSORT(8) Pacman-contrib Manual PACSORT(8) NAME pacsort - sort utility implementing alpm_pkg_vercmp SYNOPSIS pacsort [options] [files ...] DESCRIPTION pacsort concatenates the given files, sorts them, and writes them to standard output.

OPTIONS -f, --files If the input lists are in the format *-*.pkg.tar*, sort lines by pkgname and pkgver. -h, --help Display syntax and command-line options. -k, --key Sort the input starting on the specified column. -z, --null Lines end with null bytes rather than newlines. -r, --reverse Sort in reverse order. -t, --separator Field separator. Default separator is space. -V, --version Display the version. SEE ALSO pacman(8), vercmp(8) BUGS Bugs? You must be kidding; there are no bugs in this software.
