43.Nd word, line, and byte count
44.Sh SYNOPSIS

--- 47 unchanged lines hidden (view full) ---

92.Sh COMPATIBILITY
93Historically, the
94.Nm
95utility was documented to define a word as a ``maximal string of
96characters delimited by <space>, <tab> or <newline> characters''.
97The implementation, however, didn't handle non-printing characters
98correctly so that `` ^D^E '' counted as 6 spaces, while ``foo^D^Ebar''
99counted as 8 characters.
