User Commands wc(1)
NAME
wc - display a count of lines, words and characters in a
file
SYNOPSIS
wc [-c | -m | -C] [-lw] [file...]
DESCRIPTION
The wc utility reads one or more input files and, by
default, writes the number of newline characters, words and
bytes contained in each input file to the standard output.
The utility also writes a total count for all named files,
if more than one input file is specified.
wc considers a word to be a non-zero-length string of char-
acters delimited by white space (for example, SPACE, TAB).
See iswspace(3C) or isspace(3C).
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-c Counts bytes.
-C Same as -m.
-l Counts lines.
-m Counts characters.
-w Counts words delimited by white space characters or
new line characters. Delimiting characters are
Extended Unix Code (EUC) characters from any code
set defined by iswspace().
If no option is specified, the default is -lwc (counts
lines, words, and bytes.)
