Yes, the classic IBM sorter I used had 13 bins, as you described.

I stand corrected; my memory must be deteriorating with age.  :-)

I think the issue of limitations to various UNIX features, as
distinguished from the *lack* of features, is an interesting one.
I find UNIX to be relatively free of unreasonable restrictions
(at least the Berkeley virtual-memory versions).
