And for the shortcut for this is a custom combination to be added to your user keymap:
{ "keys": ["f8"], "command": "permute_lines", "args": {"operation": "unique"} }

Hey this is cool, how would we go about removing duplicates if we have columns?
e.g.
id|url
id|url
id|url

So, somebody asked about finding the duplicates. Don't forget you can use a Unix command, 'uniq -d' to print those out. (Sort the file, first.)
