The top answer said to use grep -o and pipe it to wc -l.
The -o option tells grep to output the regex matches, one per line.
So counting the number of lines with wc -l gives the number of matches.
Computational minimalism Computational minimalism is a variation on computational survivalism.
Computational minimalists limit themselves to a small set of tools, maybe the same set of tools as computational survivalist, but for different reasons.
I’m more sympathetic to minimalism than survivalism.
You can be more productive by learning to use a small set of tools well than by hacking away with a large set of tools you hardly know how to use.
I use a lot of different applications, but not as many as I once used.
