Re: [ot][spam][crazy] in place sort of binary strings ie lines in a file

now make list of output byte ranges. this can be done by starting at the start and summing the lengths.

then cut the lists so that there is no overlap at the edges. the byte ranges turn into sequences.

ok um we need the data ….. um

then we can swap the sequences one at a time to reorder the data in place. here also we’ll need to be sure the ranges update when the swap happens
