     NAME
          uniq - report repeated lines in a file

     SYNOPSIS
          uniq [ -udc [ +n ] [ -n ] ] [ input [ output ] ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Uniq 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.  Input and output should always be different.  Note
          that repeated lines must be adjacent in order to be found;
          see sort(1).

     OPTIONS
          -u   Output just the lines that are not repeated in the
               original file.

          -d   Writes one copy of just the repeated lines.  The normal
               mode output is the union of the -u and -d mode outputs.

          -c   Ignore the -u and -d options and generate an output
               report in default style, but precede each line with the
               number of times the line occurred.

          The n arguments specify skipping an initial portion of each
          line in the comparison:

          -n      The first n fields, together with any blanks before
                  each, are ignored.  A field is a string of non-
                  space, non-tab characters separated by tabs and
                  spaces from its neighbors.

          +n      The first n characters are ignored.  Fields are
                  skipped before characters.

     EXAMPLES
          $ cat infile

          This is not a unique file.
          This is not a unique file.
          This line occurs once.
          The next line will not count as the third occurence.
          This is not a unique file.

          $ uniq -c infile

             2 This is not a unique file.
             1 This line occurs once.
             1 The next line will not count as the third occurence.
             1 This is not a unique file.

          The above example finds repeated lines in a file.  NOTE:
          Only repeated adjacent lines are considered repeated.
