You might try altering your shell script so that it does not use -t, since it's 
not a standard option and most versions of 'uniq' do not support it. See:

Hi 

I  came across a shell script which contains uniq command.
 uniq -t ":"

but shell returns
uniq: invalid option -- 't'

I have checked all the versions but could not find any one of them
containing -t option.

Please help how to deal with that.

Thanks
VSP
