Does it support the ability to act like the sort command, though switching to a different term "buffer", sorting visually with a defined (i.e. through config file) speed, and then returning the sorted entries to stdout?
- The program is not really focused on being a useful utility and actually sorting lists/arrays quickly, but more of a program to help understand how different sorting algorithms work, meaning no, the program does not function like the 'sort' command (and it does not output the sorted entries), but you can specify the speed at which the program sorts at.
