```
public SortCommand sort()
```
    Description copied from interface: Sort.Interface
    
    Sort the lines read from the standard input and writes the result to the standard output.
    Comparisons are based on the entire line without line ending. The collating sequence of the current locale is used to perform the comparisons.
    The sort algorithm used is guaranteed to be stable: lines considered equal will not be reordered as a result of the sort.
    
    Specified by:
    
    sort in interface Sort.Interface<SortCommand>
    
    Returns:
    the generic type <R> defined by the implementing class; the command itself returns no value and writes its result to the standard output; see class level parameter comments for more details
  - sort
```
public SortCommand sort(String... args)
```
    Description copied from interface: Sort.Interface
    
    Sort the lines of all the specified files together and writes the result to the standard output.
    Options can be specified by acronym (with a leading dash "-") or by long name (with two leading dashes "--"). Operands other than the default "--paths" operand have to be prefixed with the operand name.
    The sort algorithm used is guaranteed to be stable: lines considered equal will not be reordered as a result of the sort. If two lines originate from different input files, the index of the file in the input arguments list defines the ordering of the lines.
    
    Specified by:
    
    sort in interface Sort.Interface<SortCommand>
    
    Parameters:
    args - String arguments defining the options and operands for the command. Options can be specified by acronym (with a leading dash "-") or by long name (with two leading dashes "--"). Operands other than the default "--paths" operand have to be prefixed with the operand name (e.g. "--comparator" for a subsequent comparator operand value).
    
    Returns:
    the generic type <R> defined by the implementing class; the command itself returns no value and writes its result to the standard output; see class level parameter comments for more details
