This sort of thing should also work:
sed -e 's/[^myChar]//g' myFile | wc -c
where myChar is the character you are searching for and myFile is the file you are searching in.

I'm trying to count the number of 2 specific characters in a very large file. I'd like to avoid using gsub because its taking too long.
I was thinking something like:
awk '-F' { t += NF - 1 } END {print t}' infile > outfile
which isn't working
Any ideas would be great. (3 Replies)
