Re: First approximation of source line count for potato
Lars counted lines in potato and said:

That sounds high. I have a counter program that I haven't quite
finished, I have much lower numbers. Either yours are over counting,
mine are under counting, or I forgot the numbers. (Can't get to them
for a few hours. I cratered the gateway at my house and have to lay
on hands.)
I'll put up a web page of the results tonight. It would be nice if
a few developers would independently spot check the results.
I was concerned about publishing these numbers. I'd hate to have people
saying things like "Operating system XXX is bloated, it has 4 times as
much source as operating system YYY."

Great minds think alike. :-) `file' is shockingly slow when you think
about 714315 files.
