One simple way in BBEdit is to do a Find using a regular expression that can
natch any of the 4 names, then click the Extract button which will produce a
document with each occurrence on a line, then sort lines, and then if the
document is displaying line numbers its easy to see how many occurrences of each
of the 4 there are using the first and last line numbers per each. -- Darren Duncan

I have the following data (shown below). I want to count how many times each of
the four names appear (Harvey Haney, Apple Jones, Banana Herb, Sam Blue). Can
this be done in BBEdit? If not, I would appreciate suggestions on how it can be
done.
10:45:57From Harvey Haney : Good morning. How is everyone today?
10:46:08From Apple Jones : I'm doing good. How are you?
10:46:12From Banana Herb : Good how are you!
10:46:18From Sam Blue : I'm doing fine. How are you?
