Using Ruby instead of sed and awk

Re:Using Ruby instead of sed and awk by jonathonf on Thursday February 12, 2015 @12:30PM (#9039986)

Instead of:

    cat foo.txt | ruby -ne 'BEGIN{ $x=[]}; $x << $_.chomp; END { puts $x.sort }'

just use `sort`:

    sort foo.txt

There's a reason these commands already exist. :)
