An ugly work-around is this descriptor-magic:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
wc -l wpd*.prg >wc.out
totallines=0
totalprg=0
exec 3<&0 # save stdin
exec 0<wc.out # redirect stdin
while read a b
do
        totalprg=`expr $totalprg + 1`
        totallines=`expr $totallines + $a`
        echo $totalprg $totallines
done
exec 0<&3 # restore stdin
echo Total Programs $totalprg
echo Total Lines $totallines

NAME

       fileutil::magic::cgen - Generator core for compiler of magic(5) files

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tcl  8.4

       package require fileutil::magic::cgen  ?1.0?

       package require fileutil::magic::rt  ?1.0?

       package require struct::tree

       package require struct::list

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree script

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treedump tree

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treegen tree node

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       This  package  provides the generator backend for a compiler of magic(5) files into recognizers based on the fileutil::magic::rt recognizer
       runtime package. For the compiler frontend using this generator see the package fileutil::magic::cfront.

COMMANDS

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree script
	      This command converts the recognizer specified by the script into a tree and returns the object command of that tree as its  result.
	      It uses the package struct::tree for the tree.

	      The script is in the format specified by magic(5).

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treedump tree
	      This  command  takes a tree as generated by ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree and returns a string encoding the tree for human consump-
	      tion, to aid in debugging.

       ::fileutil::magic::cgen::treegen tree node
	      This command takes a tree as generated by ::fileutil::magic::cgen::2tree and returns a Tcl script, the recognizer for the file types
	      represented by the sub-tree rooted at the node.  The generated script makes extensive use of the commands provided by the recognizer
	      runtime package fileutil::magic::rt to perform its duties.

BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK
       This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems.  Please report such in the category fileutil
       :: magic of the Tcllib SF Trackers [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12883].  Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may
