Hi,
I've a sequence of line in a file, that is a result from a parsing of a
logfile. I would group equal lines, and then count them, group by
group.
For example:

file example:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - access granted
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - access granted
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy - access granted
zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz - access denied

wish of output:

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - access granted 2 time(s)
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy - access granted 1 time(s)
zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz - access denied 1 time(s)

any ideas?
