'Cause ain't written yet ;)
I needed to know if the data was available in a suitable format.
As this should be in a script initialization section, I believe 
redirection is more appropriate than pipes.

One line of my script will be:
   > lsblk -l -o name,label | sort > /home/richard/mydata.txt

I had no problem interpreting Jude's post.
My personal convention would have been to write it as
"lsblk -l -o name,label | sort | myscript".

BUT. I read Jude's and Reco's posts at midnight.
Reco's answer of "lsblk -l -x name -o name,label" was better.
I just tried Jude's as I read it after Jude's.
I should reply only when really awake ;/
