search of common words in set of files

Hi,

I have a set of simple, one columned text files (in thousands).
file1:
a
b
c
d
file 2:
b
c
d
e
and so on. There is a collection of words in another file:
b d
b c d e
I have to find out the set of words (in each row) is present or absent in the given set of files. So, the output would be in matrix form (file*set) like:
1 0
1 1
I have the following code in bash, which is working well, but it involves very high computational cost with the increase of the file and set size. Any suggestion for better checking for the words is much appreciated.

My code segment:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
rm -f feat.txt 
touch feat.txt 
rm -f tem.txt
touch tem.txt
#read the rows of set file s.txt and put into seperate files 
lables=1
while read myline
  do
   echo $myline > temp.txt
   cat temp.txt|awk '{for (i=1;i<=NF;i++) print $i}'|sort|uniq > l$lables.txt
   lables=`expr $lables + 1`
  done < s.txt
p=`wc -l s.txt| awk '{print $1}'`
q=`expr $p - 1`
a=1
c=`expr $a + $q`
while [ $a -le $c ]
  do
  rm -f a.txt
  touch a.txt
  fileno=1
  while [ $fileno -le 1000 ]
   do
     cat l$a.txt|fgrep -xvf $fileno.txt| awk '{printf ($1 " ")}' >> a.txt
     echo >>a.txt
     fileno=`expr $fileno + 1`
   done 
  cat a.txt |awk '{if ($0 != NULL) print "0"; if ($0 == null) print "1"}'>c.txt
  paste c.txt feat.txt > feat1.txt
  cat feat1.txt >feat.txt
  a=`expr $a + 1`
 done

Thank you in advance

CREATE TEXT SEARCH 
DICTIONARY(7) SQL Commands CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY(7) NAME
CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY - define a new text search dictionary SYNOPSIS
CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY name ( TEMPLATE = template [, option = value [, ... ]] ) DESCRIPTION
CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY creates a new text search dictionary. A text search dictionary specifies a way of recognizing interesting or uninteresting words for searching. A dictionary depends on a text search template, which specifies the functions that actually perform the work. Typically the dictionary provides some options that control the detailed behavior of the template's functions. If a schema name is given then the text search dictionary is created in the specified schema. Otherwise it is created in the current schema. The user who defines a text search dictionary becomes its owner. Refer to in the documentation for further information. PARAMETERS
name The name of the text search dictionary to be created. The name can be schema-qualified. template The name of the text search template that will define the basic behavior of this dictionary. option The name of a template-specific option to be set for this dictionary. value The value to use for a template-specific option. If the value is not a simple identifier or number, it must be quoted (but you can always quote it, if you wish). The options can appear in any order. EXAMPLES
The following example command creates a Snowball-based dictionary with a nonstandard list of stop words. CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY my_russian ( template = snowball, language = russian, stopwords = myrussian ); COMPATIBILITY
There is no CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY statement in the SQL standard. SEE ALSO
