Hello,
Just a quick question, wondering if somone can help. How do I do recursive word / line count using 'wc'? What I mean, eg if I have 3 directories in the current directory, I want wc to go inside each directory, cound the line / words for all the files in each directory, and display the total of the files in those 3 different directories.
Any help ?
Off the top of my head:
wc -w `find . -name \* -print`
...which will fail if there are too many files for the command line.
