$ 

mb.utf8 is attached.

Man page says:

     If no option is  specified,  the  default  is  -lwc  (counts
     lines, words, and bytes.)

SUS says:     
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/wc.html

By default, the standard output shall contain an entry for each input file of 
the form:

"%d %d %d %s\n", <newlines>, <words>, <bytes>, <file>

If the -m option is specified, the number of characters shall replace the 
<bytes> field in this format.
