Apparently you want to use this data to know how many blue circles, blue
squares, red circles and red squares. In other words, I doubt you want
to output redundant data columns, you just want this data in a more
usable format and that you don't actually need to do multiple passes
over it.

Hi,
Given a large ascii file (delimited or fixed width) with one ID field
and dimensions/measures fields, sorted by dimensions, I'd like to
"flatten" or "rollup" the file by creating new columns: one for each
combination of dimension level, and summing up measures over all
records for a given ID.
