This command verifies that the output from Qsort is in
sorted order.

As I posted yesterday,

  If you are getting errors from
   
    % ./Qsort FILE | sort -c
   
  a possible cause is not having the environment variable
  LC_ALL set to C.  Running it as
   
    % Qsort T/f007 | LC_ALL=C sort -c
   
  or executing the command
   
    % export LC_ALL=C
   
  first corrects this problem (the latter until you log
  out).

The test scripts all set LC_ALL to C to avoid this issue.
