"Are you asking for a challenge???!!"

Choose your favourite language; how many lines and how many minutes does it take you to write a program that takes in an arbitrary text file, find all the unique words in it, and spit them back?
(I had need to do this, just a few minutes ago, and I did it in like 20 very calm, relaxed lines of LISP, in just a coupla minutes... but I bet if you're good at Perl, you could do it in fewer lines and fewer minutes than that)
Post source :)
( gratuitous LISP code )
