+.Nm wc
+.Nd word, line, character, and byte count
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl Lclmw
+.Op Ar
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility displays the number of lines, words, and bytes contained in each
+input
+.Ar file ,
+or standard input (if no file is specified) to the standard output.
+A line is defined as a string of characters delimited by a
+.Aq newline
+character.
+Characters beyond the final
+.Aq newline
+character will not be included
+in the line count.
+.Pp
+A word is defined as a string of characters delimited by white space
+characters.
+White space characters are the set of characters for which the
+.Xr iswspace 3
+function returns true.
+If more than one input file is specified, a line of cumulative counts
+for all the files is displayed on a separate line after the output for
+the last file.
+.Pp
+The following options are available:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Fl L
+The number of characters in the longest input line
+is written to the standard output.
+When more then one
+.Ar file
+argument is specified, the longest input line of
+.Em all
+files is reported as the value of the final
+.Dq total .
+.It Fl c
+The number of bytes in each input file
+is written to the standard output.
+This will cancel out any prior usage of the
+.Fl m
+option.
+.It Fl l
+The number of lines in each input file
+is written to the standard output.
+.It Fl m
+The number of characters in each input file is written to the standard output.
+If the current locale does not support multibyte characters, this
+is equivalent to the
+.Fl c
+option.
+This will cancel out any prior usage of the
+.Fl c
+option.
+.It Fl w
+The number of words in each input file
+is written to the standard output.
+.El
+.Pp
+When an option is specified,
+.Nm
+only reports the information requested by that option.
+The order of output always takes the form of line, word,
+byte, and file name.
+The default action is equivalent to specifying the
+.Fl c , l
+and
+.Fl w
+options.
+.Pp
+If no files are specified, the standard input is used and no
+file name is displayed.
+The prompt will accept input until receiving EOF, or
+.Bq ^D
+in most environments.
+.Sh ENVIRONMENT
+The
+.Ev LANG , LC_ALL
+and
+.Ev LC_CTYPE
+environment variables affect the execution of
+.Nm
+as described in
+.Xr environ 7 .
+.Sh EXIT STATUS
+.Ex -std
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+Count the number of characters, words and lines in each of the files
+.Pa report1
+and
+.Pa report2
+as well as the totals for both:
+.Pp
+.Dl "wc -mlw report1 report2"
+.Pp
+Find the longest line in a list of files:
+.Pp
+.Dl "wc -L file1 file2 file3 | fgrep total"
+.Sh COMPATIBILITY
+Historically, the
+.Nm
+utility was documented to define a word as a
+.Do
+maximal string of
+characters delimited by <space>, <tab> or <newline> characters
+.Dc .
+The implementation, however, did not handle non-printing characters
+correctly so that
+.Dq Li "\ \ ^D^E\ \ "
+counted as 6 spaces, while
+.Dq Li foo^D^Ebar
+counted as 8 characters.
+.Bx 4
+systems after
+.Bx 4.3
+modified the implementation to be consistent
+with the documentation.
+This implementation defines a
+.Dq word
+in terms of the
+.Xr iswspace 3
+function, as required by
+.St -p1003.2 .
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl L
+option is a non-standard
+.Fx
+extension, compatible with the
+.Fl L
+option of the GNU
+.Nm
+utility.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr iswspace 3
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The

+.St -p1003.1-2001 .
