       _v_._r_m_d_u_p removes duplicate lines, areas, and points from a binary vector
       file  (input).	Duplicate  may be defined as exact (less than 1.12e-16
       for IEEE double precision), or defined with a threshold.

   PPaarraammeetteerrss::
       iinnppuutt==_n_a_m_e
	      Name of a binary vector file

       oouuttppuutt==_n_a_m_e
	      Name given to binary vector output file.

       tthhrreesshhoolldd==_v_a_l_u_e
	      Threshold for defining duplicate lines, areas, and points.

       The search technique used by _v_._r_m_d_u_p is not extremely sophisticated and
       may take a long time for large files.  Instead, only two sets of lines,
       areas, or points are active at any one time (so it is conservative with
       memory).
