If you don't care about the filelist but want to get the count per this last
suggestion, issue this "build" command:

   :BUILD FILELIST;DISC=32,,V,ASCII;CIR

Then, of course, redirect the output to this existing file.  The ";CIR"
option causes it to be a circular file, and with this low limit, only the
last 32 lines are "kept" in the file...
