The linux sort command specifies the Tab delimiter

The sort command under linux can sort some fields of the text, and the delimiter between the fields is a space by default. If you want to change it to something else, you need to add the parameter-t.

But you still need to pay a little attention to the tab delimiter. For example, the following command:

$sort-t'\ t'- k3meme 3n a.txt > a.sort

Sort: multi-character tab `\ t' (error)

This cannot be sorted by the tab delimiter, but can be sorted in the following two ways

one,

$sort-t $'\ t'- k3jue 3n a.txt > a.sort

two,

$sort-tweev'- k3jue 3n a.txt > a.sort

V means to press both the Ctrl and v keys, then release and press the tab key.
