Hye guys
I have two problems in unix.

1. The first problem is that I wanna search for a word in a text file and then print it's count i.e how many times it occurs in that file.Now I tried this

grep "searchword" filename | wc -l

it works well but it counts the lines where the search word appears.If the word appears twice in a line,it still counts it as one.So pls help.I want the word count,not the number of lines matching the pattern.

2.Second problem is that I need to count number of symbols (* % $ etc) in a file.How can I do that??

Thanks in advance.

One more question... If sin must be hated and/or not condoned, is not the first Commandment being broken by?

allowing freedom of religion to florish and allow non believers and believers of other religions and beliefs to be able to have power, freedom, and choice?Should not all Christian's fight for a true Christian state where all the laws of God are followed and inforced?If there is something to hate and as your Chrisian duty to show people the way, shouldn't you be maing it illegal to follow any other path then that of what God commands?

I need to know because I have been really trying to understand why people would say love the sinner but hate the sin and try to make laws that address those sins.Yes, homosexuality is among those I mean.I have a lot of gay friends and I think they are wonderful.I only wish I could have the loving relationships they have.

Anyway, I need to know, if Christians are suppose to do the will of God should they not bring forth a theocracy to better serve God?

Do You Sit At A Computer?
