wc needs a --verbose option. Else one is forced to do:
$ file=e.html; echo $file:; for i in bytes chars lines words; do echo -en
$i:\\t; wc --$i < $file; done
e.html:
bytes: 31655
chars: 29141
lines: 643
words: 1275
I mean sometimes we want to send the output to a real person, and
currently all wc makes is:
$ wc e.html
643 1275 31655 e.html
$ file=e.html; for i in bytes chars lines words; do wc --$i < $file; done
31655
29141
643
1275
So there needs to be a --verbose or --human-readable like du(1)... oops
I don't mean saying 234M... yet.
