Dear netters :
Could someone tell me how to count the number
of words in Vi or under UNIX shell ?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, that's easy: Just type
:!wc -w % <CARRIGE RETURN>
in command mode to get the number of words, or
:!wc % <CARRIGE RETURN>
to get the number of lines, words and characters.

In vi:
:w !wc -w
^
^ this space is essential.
In the shell:
wc -w filename
