Hi,
I need a command that would let ls show number of lines in each file rather than file size in KBs.
I tried using wc -l as a source of input to ls but I found a problem cutting the file name since wc generates a space delimited list.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

rcorder
RCORDER(8) BSD System Manager's Manual RCORDER(8)
NAME
rcorder -- print a dependency ordering of interdependent files
SYNOPSIS
rcorder [-k keep] [-s skip] file ...
DESCRIPTION
rcorder is designed to print out a dependency ordering of a set of interdependent files. Typically it is used to find an execution sequence
for a set of shell scripts in which certain files must be executed before others.
Each file passed to rcorder should be annotated with special lines (which look like comments to the shell) which indicate the dependencies
the files have upon certain points in the sequence, known as ``conditions'', and which indicate, for each file, which ``conditions'' may be
expected to be filled by that file.
Within each file, a block containing a series of ``REQUIRE'', ``PROVIDE'', ``BEFORE'' and ``KEYWORD'' lines should appear. The format of the
lines is rigid. Each line must begin with a single ``#'', followed by a single space, followed by ``PROVIDE:'', ``REQUIRE:'', ``BEFORE:'',
or ``KEYWORD:''. No deviation is permitted. Each dependency line is then followed by a series of conditions, separated by whitespace. Mul-
tiple ``PROVIDE'', ``REQUIRE'', ``BEFORE'' and ``KEYWORD'' lines may appear, but all such lines must appear in a sequence without any inter-
vening lines, as once a line that does not follow the format is reached, parsing stops.
The options are as follows:
-k Add the specified keyword to the ``keep list''. If any -k option is given, only those files containing the matching keyword are
listed.
-s Add the specified keyword to the ``skip list''. If any -s option is given, files containing the matching keyword are not listed.
An example block follows:
# REQUIRE: networking syslog
# REQUIRE: usr
# PROVIDE: dns nscd
This block states that the file in which it appears depends upon the ``networking'', ``syslog'', and ``usr'' conditions, and provides the
``dns'' and ``nscd'' conditions.
A file may contain zero ``PROVIDE'' lines, in which case it provides no conditions, and may contain zero ``REQUIRE'' lines, in which case it
has no dependencies. A file containing no ``PROVIDE'', ``REQUIRE'', or ``BEFORE'' lines may be output at an arbitrary position in the depen-
dency ordering.
There must be at least one file with no dependencies in the set of arguments passed to rcorder in order for it to find a starting place in
the dependency ordering.
DIAGNOSTICS
rcorder may print one of the following error messages and exit with a non-zero status if it encounters an error while processing the file
list.
Requirement %s has no providers, aborting. No file has a ``PROVIDE'' line corresponding to a condition present in a ``REQUIRE'' line in
another file.
Circular dependency on provision %s, aborting. A set of files has a circular dependency which was detected while processing the stated con-
dition.
Circular dependency on file %s, aborting. A set of files has a circular dependency which was detected while processing the stated file.
