How can I get a count of the number of files in a directory? directory + subdirectoies?
Crudely:
ls -1 | wc -l
(note the "-1" option to 'ls' is hyphen-one, NOT lower-case L, which is what the option to 'wc' is).
Note, too, that the "-1" option is not deeded, as ls detects that stdout
isn't a terminal, and it wil use one-collumn output with or without the "-1".
