<h2>wc - Word, line and

<p><strong>Synopsis</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>wc [-c | -m] [-lw]</strong> [<em>file</em> ...]</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <strong>wc</strong> utility displays the number of lines,
|
|
words, and bytes contained in each input <em>file</em> (or standard
|
|
input, by default) to standard output. A line is defined as a
|
|
string of characters delimited by a newline character. A word is
|
|
defined as a string of characters delimited by white space
|
|
characters. If more than one input file is specified, a line of
|
|
cumulative counts for all the files is displayed on a separate line
|
|
after the output for the last file.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Options</strong></p>

<p><strong>Operands</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>When an option is specified, <strong>wc</strong> only reports
|
|
the information requested by that option. The default action is
|
|
equivalent to specifying all of the flags.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If no <em>files</em> are specified, the standard input is used
|
|
and no file name is displayed.</p>
|
|
|
|
