Line/word/character count of ASCII files (DEPRECATED).

wc() uses the system command wc. Use at your own risk.

wc(file, flags = c("lines", "words", "bytes"))

Arguments

file	the file name or pattern
flags	the parameters to count, character vector with the long form of the parameters

Value

data.frame with the counts and file names, or NULL if wc is not available on the system.

Note

wc() now is deprecated and will be removed from hyperSpec in the future. Consider using count_lines() instead for line counting.
