Hi,
I have a text file where some words/events occur more than once in the same line. I have to number them in the order of appeareance. I was checking previous user's question about counting occurrences but at the end what it generates is a total of occurrences for each word, and what I need is, having this line:

doc123/print doc456/read doc789/print doc145/print doc123/read

The output will be:
doc123/print1 doc456/read1 doc789/print2 doc145/print3 doc123/read2

So I need the counting, and the renaming of each event(same word) adding a number in the order that event occurs.
I created a hash table where the key is the event and the "count" is the value, but before update the count I concatenated the value to the event in a another variable, and join each result, for each line the count start in zero (0). But it doesn't work!!! >:(

it is ok that I used hash tables or is there another way, maybe with just regular expressions?

Thanks!!
