I have an query that

index ="main" |stats count by Text |sort -count | table count Text

results:

countText
10dog fish
20   dog cat

        

 

How can I change the compare that compare first X chars into Text , for example first 4 chars , so "dog fish" and "dog cat" will be 1 line?

 

countText
30dog .....
