[Gllug] sort & uniq

[Mick Farmer]

Dear Daniel,

You probably want the following.

    sort -n file | uniq -c | sort -n

The first sort is numeric and you may wish to choose a
delimiter.  The uniq command counts occurrences.  The second
sort ranks the numbers according to their frequency.

Regards,

Mick               /"\
