No need to use cat:

Code:

echo "stepprod $( wc -l < file )"

Or, may be a bit more flexible:

Code:

FN=/usr/local/data/sales/taxware/indata/stepprod
echo ${FN##*/} $( wc -l < $FN )

If you skip the unneeded calls to cat and don't care about whether the filename comes before or after the line count, it would be much more efficient to just use:

Code:

wc -l /usr/local/data/sales/taxware/indata/stepprod

which with your sample data would produce something like:

Code:

       5 /usr/local/data/sales/taxware/indata/stepprod

or:

Code:

cd /usr/local/data/sales/taxware/indata/
wc -l stepprod

which would produce something like:

Code:

       5 stepprod

And, if you have more than one file to count:

Code:

wc -l stepprod file2 file3

might give you something like:

Code:

       5 stepprod
      12 file2
    1000 file3
    1017 total
