I have 7 tekst files (in TextEditor) with content like this:
A00166
A00167
BE_00020_MCLOCKMAN
BE_00020_MMO_008
BE_99972_MPRLMGLAS2
BE_99972_MPRLMUG
F83879
F83880
....
Is it possible to merge the 7 files into ONE where all the “duplicated” names are merged into one:
Meaning, for example if image A00166 is also in textfile 2 and 4 it should be repeated only 1 time into the “new merged” textfile.
And of course if the name of the image is only in one of the files it should also be in the “new merged” textfile.
Many thanks for any idea’s This is trivial to do in a shell script:
do shell script "cat /path/to/files/* | sort -u > ~/Desktop/merged.txt"
