Search in a big file for specific word

I am able to access the file I created using this code that saves into the file every word inputted from EditTExt in Android. However, after inputting more words the only the last word was written on the file. It seems that the previous words was overwritten after pressing the SAVE button. This button is clicked each time a word is to be saved in the text file.

I had a command which would work through a text file, count all the occurrences of the words and print it out like this:

remy@box $˜ magic-command-i-forgot | with grep | and awk | sort ./textfile.txt 66: the 54: and 32: I 16: unix 12: bash 5: internet 3: sh 1: GNU/Linux

So it does not search line-by-line, but word by word, and it does it for all the words, not just for 1 word.

Hi,

Have installed a fresh/new version of Ubuntu 12.04, being on 10.04 beforehand. The navigation has no task bar at the bottom as before, and the menu navigation is difficult, with many previous options now 'missing'.

Also, the biggest problem is to search for file/s.

Hello, I have a file with a large number of words each listed in sequential order one word per line.

In Linux, I have many files and I need to copy paste the mth word of the nth line of all the files onto a plain .txt file along with the file names.

how can I know that the word in test file end at this point .... I have an Idea to search on ' ' , '\n' or '\0' but don't know what function can store the string before those characters ..

help please !

I recently had trouble with some regex on the command-line, and found that for matching a backslash, different numbers of characters can be used. This number depends on the quoting used for the regex (none, single quotes, double quotes).
