# wc

A worse implementation of gnu wc but in rust.

Not identical output to wc because it would take a lot of effort to cover all the strange edge cases

For example: wc does not count the last line of a file if it doesnt have the end of line char.

My implementation does which can cause the results to be slightly different.

```

Usage: wc [OPTION]... [FILE]...

  or:  wc [OPTION]... --files0-from=F

Print newline, word, and byte counts for each FILE, and a total line if

more than one FILE is specified.  A word is a non-zero-length sequence of

characters delimited by white space.

With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

The options below may be used to select which counts are printed, always in

the following order: newline, word, character, byte, maximum line length.

Arguments:

  [FILE]...

Options:

  -c, --bytes            print the byte counts

  -m, --chars            print the character counts

  -l, --lines            print the newline counts

      --files0-from   read input from the files specified by

                           NUL-terminated names in file F;

                           If F is - then read names from standard input

  -L, --max-line-length  print the maximum display width

  -w, --words            print the word counts

  -h, --help             Print help

  -V, --version          Print version

```
