Bigram does not check for characters outside 32-127.
The bigram output is silly and need ~1/2 CPU time of
database rebuilding.

locate.bigram < $filelist | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr

new:
bigram < $filelist | sort -nr

Code does not check for char 31.
Use a lookup array instead a function. 3 x faster.
