grep count across multiple files
I have a number of simulation log files and I want to get a total count of the "PASSED" expression in them. If I use grep -c <files>, grep would give a tally for each file. I just want one number, the total count. How do I do that?

Code:
grep -c PASSED <files> | awk -F: '{ s+=$2 } END { print s }'

That counts the number of files with PASSED in them, I was under the impression that the number of lines was the interesting number (there could be more than one per file).
Second drl's suggestion; Code:
cat files | grep -c PASSED
