DESCRIPTION     wc provides a count of the words, text lines, and

                roff control lines for each argument file.



                A text line is a sequence of characters not be-

                ginning with "."  and ended by a new-line.  A

                roff control line is a line beginning with ".".

                A word is a sequence of characters bounded by the

                beginning of a line, by the end of a line, or by

                a blank or a tab.
