Hello everyone, after a few days of inactivity i'm finally back!Anyhow, down to business...I am trying to find out how to display the current visible directory and file count (as one number), and also display the current directory size in my PS1.

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this problem:

Write a script called countFiles that takes two arguments, the initial directory and the number of levels and returns the count of all files (including directories) in the directories and subdirectories up to the number of levels.

Hi all,

I have a tab-delimited text file of size 10Mb. I am trying to count the number of lines using,

Code: grep -c . sample.txt or

Code: wc -l < sample.txt or

Code: awk 'END {print NR}'  sample.txt All these commands shows the count as 1, which means they are reading only the first header line of the file.
