I do about 10 wordcounts a day to track my progress on my book (44081 words
at present time). I jam the wordcount into a log, once again to track
progress. My script first adds to the log, then prints the log so I can see
my progress for the day.
Here's the shellscript:
LOGFILE="/data/books/newbook/xwc.log"
TEMP1=`grep -v "^[\]" /data/books/newbook/xtp.lyx | grep -v "^#L yX 1.1" |
grep -v "^$" | wc`
TEMP2=`date +"%Y/%m/%d @ %H:%M:%S"`
echo "$TEMP2 : $TEMP1" >> $LOGFILE
cat $LOGFILE
