catching some errors
I need to find a way to keep a running tally of how many times events or actions occur. Say if a user is prompted to make inputs of 1 or 2, I want it to keep track of how many times 1 was entered, and how many times 2 was entered.
Thanks for your help

TALLY.CONTROL(8) InterNetNews Documentation TALLY.CONTROL(8)
NAME
tally.control - Keep track of newsgroup creations and deletions
SYNOPSIS
tally.control < logfile
DESCRIPTION
tally.control is normally daily invoked by scanlogs. It reads its standard input, which should be the newgroup.log and rmgroup.log control
log files. They contain a summary line describing the control message and the action taken by controlchan, followed by the article
indented by four spaces, and a blank line. Then, tally.control updates the cumulative list of newsgroup creations and deletions which is
kept in control.log.
All these log files reside in the pathlog directory set in inn.conf. In order to generate them, you need to enable control articles
logging in control.ctl(5), as explained in the control.log entry of newslog(5).
FILES
pathbin/tally.control
The Shell script itself used to tally newsgroup creations and deletions up.
pathlog/control.log
This file maintains a count of the number of newgroup and rmgroup control messages seen for each newsgroup. The count is of the number
of control messages with the indicated arguments, regardless if they were actually processed. All control arguments, including invalid
ones, are counted. An example of lines which can be found in that log file is:
3 Control: newgroup foo.bar moderated
3 Control: rmgroup misc.removed
1 Control: newgroup misc.created
