  • Re: From JoyceUlysses.txt -- words occurring exactly once

    Given a text file of a novel (JoyceUlysses.txt) ...
    could someone give me a pretty fast (and simple) program that'd give me
    a list of all words occurring exactly once?

    tr ' .;:,?!' '\n' | sort | uniq -u

    ?

    To first approximation, this works for me (bash command):

    tr -c "[a-zA-Z-]" "\n" < ulysses.txt |sort|uniq -c|sort -n
