My wife recently bought a book called "Unix for Dummies". I'm sure it documents the command you need if you are using any flavor of Unix. For Micromonopoly operating systems, either get a Unix shell emulator such as cygwin or find a Microsoft Press book and see what it says.

Of course, any command that counts rows in a text file will need to open the file -- there is no alternative. Kevin Kennedy

Anyone whom has a good example on how to check "how many rows (without opening the file) does a text file consists of? What is the command?

Thanks in advance
