Re: How many files on your system?

[imo] this thread probably belongs in off topic, or something like that [/imo]

however, I'll play along smile

I've got 11432 files. (which isn't too bad, I've got a lot of junk that could be cleaned up)

Re: How many files on your system?

Firstly, that command only finds files in or below the directory you are in at the time.

Secondly, this has already been done, albeit in a slightly different way.

Add your results/comments there please.
