hi,

someone pls help me..

i want to create my own command,suppose "cl"(which counts the number of lines in a file).when i write cl on the command prompt with the filename as an argument,it should return me the number of lines in a file.
how do i add "cl" to /bin and treat it as a new command??

no need to add it in /bin, creating an alias will do the trick !
enter command:
alias cl='wc -l'

then type cl filename => it will echo
123 filename
