NAME
       uniq - strip adjacent repeated lines from a file

SYNOPSIS
       uniq [-c] [file] ...

DESCRIPTION
       Uniq  reads the input file(s), comparing adjacent lines. Second
       and succeeding  copies  of  repeated  lines  are  removed;  the
       remainder is written to standard output.
       
       If  the '-c' flag is given, each line is preceded by a count of
       the number of occurrences of that line.

DIAGNOSTICS
       A message is printed if an input  file  cannot  be  opened  and
       processing is terminated.
