Good points Don Cragun, my assumption was that the value in the data line was less than then number of lines and any additional lines need to be discarded.
In my solution, any processing could be done in the NR <=R block:
Understood.
The O.P. said the output "can be directed to a gnuplot ot (sic) output to a file.", but didn't specify any options for gnuplot and didn't specify filenames nor whether the headers should be included in the files or stripped from the files. There is no gnuplot man page in the Man Pages section of this forum, but some references I found said that it is very picky about having its input in tab separated fields (and the data lines given in the sample input have no tabs). Should all data be sent to one instantiation of gnuplot or should the data under each header be sent to a different instantiation of gnuplot?
I don't think I can do much more until we get a clarification on the requirements.

I'd like to use this list, which contains various file extensions , to archive these files and then remove them recursively through multiple directories and subdirectories. So far, it looks like...

uniq
uniq(1) General Commands Manual uniq(1)Name
uniq - report repeated lines in a file
Syntax
uniq [-udc[+n][-n]] [input[output]]
Description
The command reads the input file comparing adjacent lines. In the normal case, the second and succeeding copies of repeated lines are
removed; the remainder is written on the output file. Note that repeated lines must be adjacent in order to be found. For further infor-
mation, see
Options
The n arguments specify skipping an initial portion of each line in the comparison:
-n Skips specified number of fields. A field is defined as a string of non-space, non-tab characters separated by tabs and spaces from its
neighbors.
+n Skips specified number of characters in addition to fields. Fields are skipped before characters.
-c Displays number of repetitions, if any, for each line.
-d Displays only lines that were repeated.
-u Displays only unique (nonrepeated) lines.
If the -u flag is used, just the lines that are not repeated in the original file are output. The -d option specifies that one copy of
just the repeated lines is to be written. The normal mode output is the union of the -u and -d mode outputs.
The -c option supersedes -u and -d and generates an output report in default style but with each line preceded by a count of the number of
times it occurred.
