Regular Expression question

This method is faster - but it doesn't do exactly the same thing. If  
the idea is simply to have unique values in each line, then this is  
the way to go. The method I suggested simply removes repeating lines,  
and would be more suitable if one were trying to record changes in a  
stream of values.

Best,

Mark
