| Hi, there -
|
| I know it is not a bug in the wc utility ... but maybe you also handle
| feature requests (if you don't, please let me know where to address them
| to).

This is the right place.

|
|    wc -w -n file
|    to return only the number of words in file etc.
|
|
| Let me know what you think ...

Already implemented, albeit with a different syntax ;)

wc -w < file

In other words, pass your file as stdin to silence the output of a filename.

Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
