Display filename and wc stats
I'm just learning UNIX and I'm trying to do the following:

Write a script called details.bash that, for each file in the working directory, prints the filename, the # of lines, and the # of words to to some output file, like this:
filename1 73 431
filename2 5 21

It's probably a stupid question, but again I'm just learning.

It does not deserve a script! Use the commands in one line, that's it.

ls | xargs wc -wl

Get "UNIX Essentials and UNIX Core" DVD if you have questions like that.
