I use a text file for my two-letter pairs, and build my font file with FEIDIAN.  Problem is, there are a LOT of pairs, and I've accidentally let a few dupes sneak in there.  Does anyone know of an easy way to remove the duplicates?  Perhaps within OpenOffice Calc (which I have) or a simple Perl script?  I need it to be case-sensitive and not mess with whitespaces.  Anyone?  Please?

If there's a simple solution, why not post it openly? Or is that just one of your many tries to get intimate with a male community member, Kitsune xD?

Use regular expressions.

if we uses regular expressions we'd all be in trouble. I guess it depends on your definition of regular.
