I found this interesting scripts' page: http://tkhanson.net/misc/ and I think that I got an alternative to the anb script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;use warnings;
sub usage { print "$0: filea fileb\n"; exit -1;}
usage unless scalar @ARGV == 2;
my $a = shift @ARGV;my $b = shift @ARGV;
open A, "<$a" or die "can't open $a: $!\n";open B, "<$b" or die "can't open $b: $!\n";
my %bl;$bl{$_}++ for (<B>);
for (<A>) {print "$_" unless $bl{$_}}; __END__ Or using map for the last lines: my %bl = map {$_ => 1 } (<B>);map {print "$_" unless $bl{$_}} (<A>);
