comm doesn't seem to be fitted for use in scripts. E.g. when you show more than one column. To be frank, the first impression, it's weird.

comm was originally written circa 1973 by someone at Bell Labs, not rms. You're referring to the GNU implementation which came a lot later. There have been a lot of different implementations of the Unix utilities across the years.

@mlissner <() is also known as process substitution.

@mlissner comm can also read stdin (see man page). <()is your redirection.

This is some weird syntax. <()? It works and I get it, but is there a name for this weirdness?
