Hi, i'd love to have an option in ls (e.g. like --total) that would print the total number of files in a directory (files_index). I know of ls | wc, but I still feel that the number of the files listed is a function that somehow belongs somehow to ls. On the other hand is there a reason why this is missing ? I added the --total option just to 'ls.c' just to try it out ...
I would appreciate your answer, Regards Thorsten -- Thorsten Schroeteler EADS Deutschland GmbH MT642 - Aircraft Simulation Postfach 801160 D-81663 Muenchen Germany Tel. ++49(0)89 607 24388 Fax. ++49(0)89 607 22491 _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
