fctcountx

fctcountx is a command-line utility designed for counting lines, words, and characters within files. It functions similarly to the standard `wc` command found in Unix-like operating systems, but with a focus on potentially enhanced performance or specific feature sets. The utility typically accepts one or more file paths as arguments. When provided with a file path, fctcountx will read the content of that file and output counts for lines, words, and bytes (characters). If multiple file paths are given, fctcountx will provide individual counts for each file and then a grand total across all specified files.

The specific options available with fctcountx may vary, but common flags often include options to display only line counts, only word counts, or only character/byte counts. For instance, an option like `-l` might be used to show just the line count, `-w` for word count, and `-c` or `-m` for character or byte count respectively. Users can typically combine these options to achieve specific reporting needs. The output format is generally a series of numbers followed by the filename, with the total appearing on a separate line when multiple files are processed. Its primary use case is in scripting and automation where precise file content analysis is required.
