SORT-MERGE/XL is a subsystem of the MPE XL operating system
for the 900 Series HP 3000. The SORT/XL portion of the subsystem
allows you to sort files, based on one or more data items, into
a specified alphabetical, numerical, or alphanumerical order. The MERGE/XL
portion of the subsystem allows you to combine data from two or
more sorted files into a single, new, merged file.
SORT-MERGE/XL operates as a standalone utility (either interactively
or in batch mode), or within a program (programmatically). This
manual provides information on how to use SORT-MERGE/XL as a standalone
utility. It also serves as a reference manual for SORT-MERGE/XL
commands. For information on how to use SORT-MERGE/XL programmatically,
refer to the SORT-MERGE/XL Programmer's Guide.
