Short: Sums all numbers from stdin
Author: Angela Schmidt <Angela@rz.uni-karlsruhe.de>
Sumstdin reads line by line from stdin. It tries to interpret each
line as a number and sums all of these numbers. As soon as the end
of the file is reached, it prints the total sum to stdout.
Note: numbers read from stdin can be decimal, octal or hexadecimal
and must have the following syntax:
abc - decimal number
0xabc - hexadecimal number
0abc - octal number
Examles: 805509488, 0712316, 0xA9C0B
(decimal) (octal), (hexadecimal)
Output always is a decimal number.
Example:
1> list all files lformat "%l" | sumstdin
This scans the whole directory and prints the sum of all filesizes.
This program has been written to calculate the sizes for the
FindPearls-database on the Meeting Pearls CD-ROMs and has been put
into the public domain.
