Counting lines in each block file

hello
im new here so i want to say hi everybody Smilie

i have to write a script and im newbie :/ i hope that in this forum are many ppl who knows subject Smilie

i have hundrets folders. in each folder is a file name trace.txt. each trace.txt has a lot of tracert's results separates with "-----" it lookes like that :
Code:
tracert results
-----
tracert results
-----
tracert results
-----

i have to count lines in each block between "-----". by this i mean counting how many points are between machines. results should be writen into file call for example count.txt with one number per line. for example
Code:
10
10
10
11
13
14
10

does anyone have idea how to do this? i think i should use awk, but awk is hard to learn and im getting lost in this subject :/ i was able to make a part of this script, but the most important part i cannot wrie. i made something like this :
Code:
#!/bin/bash
 
for node in /home/michale/results/results_10h/*
  do 
    if [ -f $node/trace.txt ]
    then
        MISSING PART :)
    else 
        echo " there is no file to analyze! "
  done

sorry for my english, im not using it every day.

NAME
new - report on folders with new messages fnext - set current folder to next folder with new messages fprev - set current folder to previous folder with new messages unseen - scan new messages in all folders with new messages SYNOPSIS
new [sequences] [-mode mode] [-folders foldersfile] [-version] [-help] fnext is equivalent to new -mode fnext fprev is equivalent to new -mode fprev unseen is equivalent to new -mode unseen DESCRIPTION
New in its default mode produces a one-line-per-folder listing of all folders containing messages in the listed sequences or in the sequences listed in the profile entry "Unseen-Sequence". Each line contains the folder, the number of messages in the desired sequences, and the message lists from the .mh_sequences file. For example: foo 11.* 40-50 bar 380. 760-772 824-828 total 391. The `*' on foo indicates that it is the current folder. The last line shows the total number of messages in the desired sequences. New crawls the folder hierarchy recursively to find all folders, and prints them in lexicographic order. Override this behavior by provid- ing foldersfile containing the pre-sorted list of folders new should check, one per line. In fnext and fprev modes, new instead changes to the next or previous matching folder, respectively. In unseen mode, new executes scan sequences for each matching folder. FILES
$HOME/.mh_profile The user profile PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine the user's nmh directory Current-Folder: To find the default current folder Unseen-Sequence: The name of the unseen message sequence SEE ALSO
