Hi.

Using standard utilities:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env sh

# @(#) s1       Demonstrate split of line into characters, filter, sort, count.

set -o nounset
echo

debug=":"
debug="echo"

## Use local command version for the commands in this demonstration.

echo "(Versions used in this script displayed with local utility "version")"
version bash sed grep sort uniq

echo

FILE=${1-data1}

sed -e 's/\(.\)/\1\n/g' $FILE |
grep -f data2 |
sort |
uniq -c

exit 0

To produce:
Code:
% ./s1

(Versions used in this script displayed with local utility version)
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i386-pc-linux-gnu)
GNU sed version 4.1.2
grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1
sort (coreutils) 5.2.1
uniq (coreutils) 5.2.1

      9 A
      7 C
      4 F
      2 R

Noting that "F" is indeed 4: using a local utility:
Code:
% describe -c data1
    1 lines read
    1 words read
   40 chars read

   39 length of longest line
    1 occurrences
    1 line at which first seen
    1 line at which last seen

   39 length of shortest (non-zero length) line
    1 occurrences
    1 line at which first seen
    1 line at which last seen

  1:1 columns:lines.
       1 newline
       9 A
       1 B
       7 C
       4 F
       1 G
       2 H
       4 J
       2 R
       2 S
       2 T
       5 V

Best wishes ... cheers, drl

NAME
uniq - report or omit repeated lines SYNOPSIS
uniq [OPTION]... [INPUT [OUTPUT]] DESCRIPTION
Filter adjacent matching lines from INPUT (or standard input), writing to OUTPUT (or standard output). With no options, matching lines are merged to the first occurrence. Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. -c, --count prefix lines by the number of occurrences -d, --repeated only print duplicate lines -D, --all-repeated[=delimit-method] print all duplicate lines delimit-method={none(default),prepend,separate} Delimiting is done with blank lines -f, --skip-fields=N avoid comparing the first N fields -i, --ignore-case ignore differences in case when comparing -s, --skip-chars=N avoid comparing the first N characters -u, --unique only print unique lines -z, --zero-terminated end lines with 0 byte, not newline -w, --check-chars=N compare no more than N characters in lines --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit A field is a run of blanks (usually spaces and/or TABs), then non-blank characters. Fields are skipped before chars. Note: 'uniq' does not detect repeated lines unless they are adjacent. You may want to sort the input first, or use `sort -u' without `uniq'. Also, comparisons honor the rules specified by `LC_COLLATE'. AUTHOR
