Hi All, I am trying to sort a tab delimited file with sort. The problem I am having is with the -t option. I do not know how to pass a tab. Things I have tried: sort -t \t sort -t '\t' sort -t "\t" sort -t 0x09 sort -t '0x09' sort -t "0x09" sort -t ^I sort -t '^I' sort -t "^I" Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks
