Ok this is the output im getting, why is the echo statement messed up.
Please enter a filename:
testfile.txt
words.ou, your file has 239 words and 159

heres the code:
Code:
#!/bin/csh

echo "Please enter a filename: "

set filename = $<

set num = ` wc -w $filename | awk '{ print $1 } ' `
set dif = `tr -d '.:"(),-' < $filename | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]' | tr ' ' '\n' | sort | uniq | wc -l`

echo "Thank you, your file has $num words and $dif different words."

echo " "
