Just FTR, appears (testing with 5.8 and w2k against .pl and (ASCII text) .txt files as the targets) that this produces an accurate count on the .pl files, but not so with those named *.txt.
First suspicion was that some doubled \n instances might be the problem, but further runs aginst .txt files without blank lines disabused me of that: perl -pe"}{$\=$." f:\_wo\(various).txt, consistently undercounted the lines.
Is it just late on a hot, sticky and perhaps "stupidity-inducing" night, or do others see this too?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
