Given a 600 MB logfile, how would you count the # of lines that contain a certain word or phrase?

How can you tell if a file is executeable?

How do you string together a series of commands so that the output of one is used as the input of the next

You need to find a book, of which there are numerous in stores and on-line,
that are introductions to Unix. These are introductory topics. There are
others as well. It would be a good idea to be familiar with them all to have
a more solid base of knowledge. It'll be the glue that helps make manual
pages more useful to you and will guide you into shell scripts which are
useful and powerful.

The wc command. Refer to the man page for the "-l" (small ell) option.
The ls command. Refer to the man page for the "-l (small ell) option also.
With pipes.
