combining commands
Hello all,
I am trying to list and count all the files of a particular type in any given directory. I can use the commands separately but when I combine them they do not give an output.
The command for counting the files is ls -1 | wc -l and for listing all the file of particular type say .torrent is ls -1| awk '/.torrent/{print};'. Now when I combine the commands to count and list all the .torrent file - ls -1 | wc -l | awk '/.torrent/{print};' - I do not get any output. Can anyone tell me how this is done?
Thanks & Rgds
