NAME
wc - word count
SYNOPSIS
wc [ -lwcp ] [ -s_p_a_g_e_s_i_z_e ] [ -v ] [ name ... ]
DESCRIPTION
_W_c counts lines, words, characters and (optionally) pages in
the named files, or in the standard input if no name
appears. A word is a maximal string of characters delimited
by spaces, tabs or newlines.
If an argument beginning with one of ``lwcp'' is present,
the specified counts (lines, words, characters, or pages)
are selected by the letters l, w, c, or p. The default is
-lwc unless -v is specified.
The -s option specifies that pages are _p_a_g_e_s_i_z_e lines long
instead of the defaut 66.
The -v option asks for a verbose output format, with column
headers and including pages by default.
