Shuffle the input by outputting a random permutation of input lines. each output permutation is equally likely. with no file, or when file is -, read standard input.

Usage

shuf [{-e | --echo}] [{-i | --input-range}] [{-n | --head-count}] [{-o | --output}] [--random-source] [{-r | --repeat}] [{-z | --zero-terminated}] [{-h | --help}] [{-V | --version}] [file-or-args]

Overview

Shuffle the input by outputting a random permutation of input lines. Each output permutation is equally likely. With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

Options

-e, --echo

treat each ARG as an input line

-i, --input-range=LO-HI

treat each number LO through HI as an input line

-n, --head-count=COUNT

output at most COUNT lines

-o, --output=FILE

write result to FILE instead of standard output

--random-source=FILE

get random bytes from FILE

-r, --repeat

output lines can be repeated

-z, --zero-terminated

line delimiter is NUL, not newline

-h, --help
