PROGRAM
	wordcount: count words from the standard input
USAGE
	wordcount [ -a | -l | -w | -c ]
DESCRIPTION
	wordcount provides a count of the words, text lines, and single
	byte characters from a text stream.

	A word is a sequence of characters bounded by a new line, a blank,
	or a horizontal tab. 

	Remember that the standard ASCII newline is two characters,
	i.e. CRLF. On Unix, GNU/Linux, and Plan 9, there's a more robust
	command: wc.
EXAMPLE
	C:\Users\David> wordcount
	hello, world
	^Z
	2

	C:\Users\David> wordcount -a
	hello, world
	^Z
	       1       2        13

	C:\Users\David> echo hello, world | wordcount -a
	       1       2        14

	C:\Users\David> echo hello, world > hello.txt
	C:\Users\David> <hello.txt wordcount -a
	       1       2        14

	C:\Users\David> type hello.txt | wordcount -a
	       1       2        14

BUGS
	The defintion of a word is simplistic.
