I have a file with multiple lines. I want to know, for each word that appears in the total file, how many lines contain that word, for example:
0 hello world the man is world
1 this is the world
2 a different man is the possible one
The result I'm expecting is:
0:1
1:1
2:1
a:1
different:1
hello:1
is:3
man:2
one:1
possible:1
the:3
this:1
world:2
Note that the count for "world" is 2, not 3, since the word appears on 2 lines. Because of this, translating blanks to newline chars wouldn't be the exact solution.
