Wc(V1.0) ARPTOOLS Manual Wc(V1.0)
NAME
Wc - Text statistics
SYNOPSIS
Mr Files/... PRINT/S CHECK/S
DESCRIPTION
Wc performs various statistics over Files/... (wildcards
supported) or otherwise over the standard input.
If more than one file is examined the output will be
formatted in columns.
Statistics include the number of charachters, the number
of alphabetic charachters, the number of words of alphabetic
charachters, their average lenght, the number of words of
printable charachters, the number of lines. If the CHECK
switch is used a simple checksum is performed.
A word is a string of charachters separated by blanks
TABs or newlines.
OPTIONS
PRINT
Skip any non-printable charachter.
CHECK
Perform a simple, two part checksum: the first part
is the number of printable charachters in the file,
the second is the sum of numbers assigned to every
ASCII charachter in the file through an internal
table. If the checksum of two files differ they are
not identical.
This checksum should be compatible with the checksum
performed by the WC utilty in the Lattice C v5.0x
package.
BUGS
None known.
