Sort-External (0.18) *****

The module does exactly what I needed and in a very similar way to what I was planning to implement. Documentation and calling interface are very clear. First, I forgot to call finish before fetch. In this case a warning would be helpful. Instead it returned the items of the unsorted list which - especially in the light of the old review - disturbed me a bit.

Besides this mistake of my own, I cannot confirm the problem described before. The module worked very well for me, nothing to complain. My use case was very simple, though, therefore I cannot say that I really stressed the module. My files were big (~7GB), but I just wanted a simple lexical sorting. Therefore, I would have given four stars because I haven't grilled the module enough to be able to say if it is really really good, but to compensate a bit for the in my opinion unjustified bad first review, I give 5.

Thanks, Marvin, thumbs up from my side.

John, please contact me (I'm the module author). The snippet in your review is impossible to troubleshoot, so please send your script to marvin at rectangular dot com.
