How can I return the number of files in a directory? I was hoping for some kind of ls switch but did not find one. I did get excited about du -c but this returns a total of bytes, not files. Any ideas? I thought this would be have been something simple to find, I guess I may have just been looking in the wrong direction. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
