How to use dedup on a field, but aggregate all other values in another field?

I am running a search to identify all users and the URLs they have connected to. The result includes duplicate users, but different URLs. I would like to dedup the users field, but have it list all URLs each user as connected to.

The results currently look like this:

User       URLS
Mak        Cnn.com
Mak        Google.com
Mak        Yahoo.com
Bam        Aljazeera.com
Bam        BBC.com

I would like it to look like this;

User       URLS
Mak        Cnn.com
           Google.com
           Yahoo.com
Bam        Aljazeera.com
           BBC.com

I hope this makes sense.

The current search is .... | table user src_user. If I use the dedup value against the src_user, I lose all the URLs except for one that associates with each user returned in the dedup function.

Thanks,

Note that list won't do dedup on URLs, you can use values instead if you want this to happen:

| inputcsv mycsv.csv
| stats values(URLS) as URLS by User
