Assigning Value of variable
Hi
In my shell script, I'm trying to find the line count of a file and assign it to a variable.
LINE_COUNT=$(wc -l $FILE_NAME)
But when i display LINE_COUNT, i'm getting the linecount concatenated with the file name. I want only the number. How can i get the line count alone ? Someone please help.
Thanks,
Jane A

NAME
Xmark - summarize x11perf results
SYNTAX
Xmark datafile
DESCRIPTION
Xmark is a shell script that reads the indicated datafile and compiles a benchmark which it writes to standard output. It writes three
numbers:
A weighted performance number for the x11perf results.
A weighted performance number for a standard SparcStation 1, with SunOS 4.1.2, X11R5 Xsun, and a CG3 dumb Color Frame Buffer.
The Xmark, which is the ratio of the two numbers above.
The datafile must be an ordinary file, produced by x11perf in the following way:
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy GXxor -all > datafile
It is possible to run the GXcopy and GXxor tests separately, as long as they are concatenated to the same output file:
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy -all > datafile
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXxor -all >> datafile
or
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXxor -all > datafile
x11perf -display display -v1.3 -rop GXcopy -all >> datafile
FILES
temp.$$
Temporary file created in the current directory, deleted after use.
