Help with Unix and Awk to count number of occurrences
Hi,

I have a file (movies.sh), this file contains list of movies such as
Quote:
Movie Year
Absence of Malice 1981
The Adventures of Robin Hood 1938
Adam's Rib 1949
Adaptation 2002
The Adjuster 1991
The Adventures of Robin Hood 1938
Affliction 1998
Adaptation 2002
Adaptation 2002
I want to redirect the movies from movies.sh to file_to_process to allow me process the file with out losing anything.

I have tried
Code:
Movies.sh >> file_to_process

But I want to add the row number to the data going to file to process. Like in AWK NR
Also I would like to process the (file_to_process) to get the number of occurrences for each movie for example
Quote:
Movie year number of occurrences
Adaptation 2002 3
As I don't want to same movie printed again and again.

will anyone be able to help with this?

NAME

       pia - play media files

SYNOPSIS

       pia [ options ] movie

DESCRIPTION

       pia is a small X11 tool which plays movie files.

OPTIONS

       pia understands the usual toolkit options (-geometry + friends).  Additional options are:

       -h     display help text

       -v     be verbose.

       -debug enable debug messages.

       -dsp <dev>
	      Use OSS device <dev> for sound.

       -noxv  Disable Xvideo extension.

       -nogl  Disable OpenGL.

       -noaudio
	      Don't play sound.

       -novideo
	      Don't play video.

       -slow n
	      Slowdown video playback by factor n.  n=2 doubles playback time, ...  This also turns off audio playback.

SUPPORTED MOVIE FORMATS

       Main  purpose  of this utility is to playback movie files recorded by xawtv, motv and streamer.	It should be able to playback every AVI or
       QuickTime movie written by one of the mentioned utilities.  Feel free to submit a bug report if this doesn't work for some file.

   QuickTime
       pia uses libquicktime to decode quicktime movies, thus it should be able to decode  and	playback  all  movies  with  codecs  supported	by
       libquicktime.

   AVI
       AVI  support  is  very  limited.   Video:  uncompressed RGB data (15 and 24 bpp) and mjpeg is supported.  Audio: only uncompressed PCM data
       works.

   WAV
       WAV files are playable too, with the same limitation like AVI audio: only uncompressed PCM data.
