.TH MW 1df "May 2017" "Manual page for mw" .SH NAME .B mw \- get space-delimited alphabetic words from input, one per line .SH SYNOPSIS .B mw FILE1 [FILE2...] .br prog1 | .B mw .SH DESCRIPTION .B mw separates the input into space-delimited words and prints them one per line, with no deduplication or sorting. It's a fairly naïve approach to the problem but it works fine as a crude initial approach. .SH NOTES This was written after watching that lovely old AT&T video where members of the Unix team (specifically Brian Kernighan and Lorinda Cherry) demonstrate piping programs together; Kernighan demonstrates `makewords` during his example. .P .SH SEE ALSO ddup(1df), sort(1), uniq(1) .SH AUTHOR Tom Ryder
