How to compare text files and delete duplicates (Linux terminal commands)
location: linuxexchange.com - date: January 1, 1970
Suppose I have two directories named dir_one and dir_two. In each of these directories I have a text file named data.txt. In other words, there are two files in two separate directories: /dir_one/data.txt and /dir_one/data.txt Despite the similar file-names, the two text files may or may not have the same contents!
What I am trying to do is this:
Compare the contents of the text files: ./dir_one/data.txt and ./dir_one/data.txt
If the contents are identical, delete one of the text files.
I have entered the following at the command terminal:
diff -qrs ./dir_one/data.txt ./dir_two/data.txt
and I receive the following message:
Files ./dir_one/data.txt ./dir_two/data.txt are identical.
Now that I know that the two text files are identical, I can use the rm command to remove one of them. So far, so good. However...
The problem is that I want to automate the deletion process. I do not want to have to enter the rm at the command line. Is there any possible way to do this - in a scr
Compare Two Files for Duplicate Lines
location: ubuntuforums.com - date: February 15, 2011
I referenced this post before addressing this question:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...=Compare+Files
...however, the command that was given is giving me the following output:
$ cat file1.txt | sed s/\"//g |awk -F\- '{print "grep "$2 " file2.txt"}' | sh >> dups.txt
: No such file or directory
: No such file or directory
: No such file or directory
: No such file or directory
sh: gre: not found
Both files exist and dups.txt is created but is repeating these lines:
grep file2.txt
grep file1.txt
I need a command that will output duplicate lines between the two files.
Thanks,

i would like to take the file contents of one file, and see if that pattern exists in another file.
example:
file_one.txt has the following:
harry.potter
sylvester.stallone
red.hat
bill.gates
file_two.txt has the following:
harry.potter
[email protected]
sylvester.stallone
[email protected]
i need a method to compare the two files and have the output tell me red.hat and bill.gates is missing from file_two.txt
is there a flag for grep or diff that will do that?
