TV_COUNT(1)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so this is TV_COUNT(1), coming at you from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew, and it is literally the tool for counting stuff in XMLTV files 💖

tv_count — Count (and print) the number of channels and programmes in an XMLTV file. No cap.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

tv_count -i FILE

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It reads XMLTV listings and prints a count of the number of channels and the number of programmes in the file. That's the whole vibe: you give it a file, it gives you the numbers. Slay. 💅

---

🎀 EXAMPLE 🎀

So say you wanna print counts of all channels and programmes in the file called listings.xml — bestie, you just run:

tv_count -i listings.xml

Iconic. Simple. Done. ✨
