Substitute "> FILE" for "touch FILE". Substitute "sed -e q" for "head -n 1". wcc () { return `dd if=$1 of=/dev/null bs=1 2>&1 | sed -e 's/\+.*//;q'` } Sort is a little harder, but feasible as a shell function. Wanna? :-) BTW: does "ls --block-size=1 -s" look broken to you? Regards, Mark. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
