wc - print the number of bytes, words, and lines in files

wwcc [-clw] [--bytes] [--chars] [--lines] [--words] [--help]
[--version] [file...]

This manual page documents the GNU version of wwcc. wwcc
counts the number of bytes, whitespace-separated words,
and newlines in each given file, or the standard input if
none are given or when a file named `-' is given. It
prints one line of counts for each file, and if the file
was given as an argument, it prints the filename following
the counts. If more than one filename is given, wwcc prints
a final line containing the cumulative counts, with the
filename `total'. The counts are printed in the order:
lines, words, bytes.
By default, wwcc prints all three counts. Options can spec-
ify that only certain counts be printed. Options do not
undo others previously given, so wwcc _-_-_b_y_t_e_s _-_-_w_o_r_d_s prints
both the byte counts and the word counts.
OOPPTTIIOONNSS
