.SH NAME
unique \- removes duplicates from a wordlist
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B unique
\fIoutput-file\fP
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B unique
command, which is part of the john package.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.
\fBjohn\fP, better known as John the Ripper, is a tool to find weak
passwords of users in a server.
.br
The \fBunique\fP tool finds and removes duplicate entries from a
wordlist (read from stdin), without changing the order. This is important
to increase the performance of john when using the wordlist method.
.SH SEE ALSO
.BR john (8),
.BR mailer (8),
.BR unafs (8),
.BR unshadow (8).
.PP
The programs are documented fully by John's documentation,
which should be available in \fI/usr/share/doc/john\fP or other
location, depending on your system.
