If .Ar input_file is a single dash .Pq Sq Fl or absent, the standard input is read. If .Ar output_file is absent, standard output is used for output. The second and succeeding copies of identical adjacent input lines are not written. Repeated lines in the input will not be detected if they are not adjacent, so it may be necessary to sort the files first. .Pp The following options are available: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Fl c , Fl -count Precede each output line with the count of the number of times the line occurred in the input, followed by a single space. .It Fl d , Fl -repeated Output a single copy of each line that is repeated in the input. .It Fl D , Fl -all-repeated Op Ar septype Output all lines that are repeated (like .Fl d , but each copy of the repeated line is written). The optional .Ar septype argument controls how to separate groups of repeated lines in the output; it must be one of the following values: .Pp .Bl -tag -compact -width separate .It none Do not separate groups of lines (this is the default). .It prepend Output an empty line before each group of lines. .It separate Output an empty line after each group of lines. .El .It Fl f Ar num , Fl -skip-fields Ar num Ignore the first .Ar num fields in each input line when doing comparisons. A field is a string of non-blank characters separated from adjacent fields by blanks. Field numbers are one based, i.e., the first field is field one. .It Fl i , Fl -ignore-case Case insensitive comparison of lines. .It Fl s Ar chars , Fl -skip-chars Ar chars Ignore the first .Ar chars characters in each input line when doing comparisons. If specified in conjunction with the .Fl f , Fl -unique option, the first .Ar chars characters after the first .Ar num fields will be ignored. Character numbers are one based, i.e., the first character is character one. .It Fl u , Fl -unique Only output lines that are not repeated in the input. .\".It Fl Ns Ar n .\"(Deprecated; replaced by .\".Fl f ) . .\"Ignore the first n .\"fields on each input line when doing comparisons, .\"where n is a number. .\"A field is a string of non-blank .\"characters separated from adjacent fields .\"by blanks. .\".It Cm \&\(pl Ns Ar n .\"(Deprecated; replaced by .\".Fl s ) . .\"Ignore the first .\".Ar m .\"characters when doing comparisons, where .\".Ar m .\"is a .\"number. .El .Sh ENVIRONMENT The .Ev LANG , .Ev LC_ALL , .Ev LC_COLLATE and .Ev LC_CTYPE environment variables affect the execution of .Nm as described in .Xr environ 7 . .Sh EXIT STATUS .Ex -std +.Sh EXAMPLES +Assuming a file named cities.txt with the following content: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +Madrid +Lisbon +Madrid +.Ed +.Pp +The following command reports three different lines since identical elements +are not adjacent: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ uniq -u cities.txt +Madrid +Lisbon +Madrid +.Ed +.Pp +Sort the file and count the number of identical lines: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ sort cities.txt | uniq -c + 1 Lisbon + 2 Madrid +.Ed +.Pp +Assuming the following content for the file cities.txt: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +madrid +Madrid +Lisbon +.Ed +.Pp +Show repeated lines ignoring case sensitiveness: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ uniq -d -i cities.txt +madrid +.Ed +.Pp +Same as above but showing the whole group of repeated lines: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ uniq -D -i cities.txt +madrid +Madrid +.Ed +.Pp +Report the number of identical lines ignoring the first character of every line: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +$ uniq -s 1 -c cities.txt + 2 madrid + 1 Lisbon +.Ed .Sh COMPATIBILITY The historic .Cm \&\(pl Ns Ar number and .Fl Ns Ar number options have been deprecated but are still supported in this implementation. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr sort 1 .Sh STANDARDS The .Nm utility conforms to .St -p1003.1-2001 as amended by Cor.\& 1-2002. .Sh HISTORY A .Nm command appeared in .At v3 .
