Count files in every subdirectory
Hi

if anyone could help me Smilie
I did a lot of search and 70% of answer is "how to count files in all subdirectories".

A basic problem for me is how to count files in every subdirectory separately then sort it by number of files

For example:
dir1
file1
file2
subdir11
dir2
dir3
file4

desired result from script:
dir2 0
dir3 1
dir1 2

More detailed problem: count only soflinks referring to certain extension in one subdir level only.

For example:
dir1
link1 to jpg file somewhere
link2 to txt file somewhere
txt file
subdir11
dir2
link2 to jpg file somewhere
link3 to jpg file somewhere

Say I am interested in link to jpgs only. Then sort it by number of occurences

Desired result:
dir1 1
dir2 2

Any help welcome. Bash, perl, python whatever. As simple as possible, please.

Yorr

gc

GC(1)							      General Commands Manual							     GC(1)

NAME

       gc - count graph components

SYNOPSIS

       gc [ -necCaDUrs?  ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION

       gc is a graph analogue to wc in that it prints to standard output the number of nodes, edges, connected components or clusters contained in
       the input files.  It also prints a total count for all graphs if more than one graph is given.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -n     Count nodes.

       -e     Count edges.

       -c     Count connected components.

       -C     Count clusters. By definition, a cluster is a graph or subgraph whose name begins with "cluster".

       -a     Count all. Equivalent to -encC

       -r     Recursively analyze subgraphs.

       -s     Print no output. Only exit value is important.

       -D     Only analyze directed graphs.

       -U     Only analyze undirected graphs.

       -?     Print usage information.

       By default, gc returns the number of nodes and edges.

OPERANDS

       The following operand is supported:

       files   Names of files containing 1 or more graphs in dot format.  If no files operand is specified, the standard input will be used.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0   Successful completion.

       1   The -U or -E option was used, and a graph of the wrong type was encountered.
