[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi I was wondering if you could tell me if there is a way to get the number of lines of a piece of text, with no other output. What I mean by this is that if you use cat -n file1, you get the number of lines but you also get the text. Thanx Gavin [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.3019.2500" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">Hi</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">I was wondering if you could tell me if there is a way to get the number of lines of a piece of text, with no other output.
