I don't know how to act on Oliver's suggestion to exclude those "directories" from my command. I printed out and tried to read the entire man page for "find", but that didn't overcome my ignorance.
That would be find / \( -path /proc -o -path /sys \) -prune -o -printf . | wc -c The commandline for find(1) is actually an expression with boolean conditions, AND/OR operators, parentheses etc. Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>
