NAME
       wc - word count

SYNOPSIS
       wc [ -lwrbc ] [ file ...	 ]

DESCRIPTION
       Wc  counts  lines,  words,  runes,  syntactically-invalid UTF codes and
       bytes in the named files, or in the standard input if no file is named.
       A  word	is a maximal string of characters delimited by spaces, tabs or
       newlines.  The count of runes includes invalid codes.

       If the optional argument is present, just the specified counts  (lines,
       words, runes, broken UTF codes or bytes) are selected by the letters l,
       w, r, b, or c.  Otherwise, lines, words and bytes (-lwc) are reported.

SOURCE
       /sys/src/cmd/wc.c

BUGS
       Wc should have options to count suboptimal UTF  codes  and  bytes  that
       cannot occur in any UTF code.
