SYNOPSIS
mkproto [-b n] [-d str] [-g n] [-i n] [-p nnn] [-s] [-t root] [-u n] source_directory [prototype_file]
OPTIONS -b Number of blocks in the prototype is n
-d Indent the prototype file using str instead of tab
-g Use n as the gid for all files and directories
-i Number of i-nodes in the prototype is n
-p Use nnn (3 octal digits) as the protection mode
-s Use the same uid, gid and mode as the source files have
-t Use the string root as the path prefix for every file
-u Use n as the uid for all files and directories
EXAMPLES
mkproto -b360 # Make a 360K prototype of this directory
mkproto -u2 -g1 -p644
# Give all files uid 2, gid 1 and mode 644
DESCRIPTION
Mkproto creates an mkfs prototype file for the specified source-directory. The prototype file is either written to stdout or, if speci-
fied, the proto-file.

mkproto - Constructs a prototype file system
SYNOPSIS
mkproto special proto
DESCRIPTION
The mkproto command is used to bootstrap a new file system. First a new file system is created using newfs. mkproto is then used to copy
files from the old file system into the new file system according to the directions found in the prototype file proto. The prototype file
contains tokens separated by spaces or newlines. The first tokens comprise the specification for the root directory. File specifications
consist of tokens, giving the mode, the user ID, the group ID, and the initial contents of the file. The syntax of the contents field
depends on the mode.
The mode token for a file is a 6-character string. The first character specifies the type of the file. (The characters -bcd specify regu-
lar, block-special, character-special, and directory files, respectively.) The second character of the type is either a u or a - (dash) to
specify setuid mode or not. The third character is either a g or a - (dash) for the setgid mode. The rest of the mode is a 3-digit octal
number, giving the owner, group, and other read, write, execute permissions. (See the chmod(1) command for more information.)
Two decimal number tokens come after the mode; they specify the user and group IDs of the owner of the file: If the file is a regular file,
the next token is a pathname from which the contents and size are copied. If the file is a block-special or a character-special file, two
decimal number tokens follow, giving the major and minor device numbers. If the file is a directory, mkproto makes the entries . (dot) and
.. (dot dot) and then reads a list of names and (recursively) file specifications for the entries in the directory. The scan is terminated
with the token $.
The following listing shows a sample prototype specification. d--777 3 1 usr d--777 3 1 sh ---755 3 1 /bin/sh ken d--755 6 1

Hi,
I need a list of the number of files in all (sub-)directories e.g.:
