|
|
\subsection count-synopsis Synopsis
|
|
<tt>count $VARIABLE</tt>
|

|
|
\subsection count-description Description
|
|
|
|
<tt>count</tt> prints the number of arguments that were
|
|
passed to it. This is usually used to find out how many elements an

environment variable array contains.

\c count does not accept any options, including '-h'.

\c count exits with a non-zero exit status if no arguments were passed
|
|
to it, and with zero if at least one argument was passed.
