Stupid Python one-liner:

Code

cat input.txt | python -c "import sys,random; print(''.join(sorted(sys.stdin.readlines(), key=lambda k: random.random())))" > output.txt

I think the only change between our 2 examples is that I print an extra newline which technically is more wrong :-)

edit:

pretty sure something like this will do the trick

Code

import random

lines = open('input.txt').read().splitlines()
random.shuffle(lines)

with open('output.txt', 'w') as f:
   f.write('\n'.join(lines))

print('%s lines shuffled.' % len(lines))
