Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Count occurance of multiple strings using grep command Post 302379266 by thegeek on Thursday 10th of December 2009 04:55:02 AM

You can do this or that, but you cannot do the both.

Code:
grep -cH "\(sent IDP Request\)\|\(Recv RRBCSM\)"

This will show the count of both matches.
But if you want it in a different count, you have to use more than one grep, i dont believe anyother way is exists with single grep ?

Why do you want it to be achieved in single grep ?!

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep is used to invoke the grep on compress'ed or gzip'ed files. All options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is speci- fied, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If zgrep is invoked as zegrep or zfgrep then egrep or fgrep is used instead of grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. For example: for sh: GREP=fgrep zgrep string files for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; zgrep string files) AUTHOR
