How to see total number of filesin Directory with subdirectories

Konqueror in file manager mode when you open a directory
only shows the number 
of subdirectories, and any files in the parent directory.

For example, I have a directory named Sounds-Library with
all my .wav 
soundfiles in it. When I open the Sounds-Library directory
it says there is 
one file, and 52 Folders (subdirectories). Within the
subdirectories are more 
subdirectories, and within these are the soundfiles.

What I'm looking for is a way to see (recursively) how many
soundfiles are in 
my Sounds-Library directory. Is this possible with
Konquerors file manager?

Or can anyone suggest a CLI solution for solving this
problem?

Thanks.

Nigel.

Right click the folder and open its properties window

$ find /path/to/folder -type f | wc -l

That unfortunately only gives me the size of the directory,
including files in 
all subdirectories, but move on down.

This does the trick. 8.4GB of .wavs translates to 17480
files. That seems one 
hell of a lot of files, and it's no wonder that I find it so
difficult 
choosing a sound.

Thanks a bunch for the CLI solution.

Works for me, i.e. produces the same number of files the
commadline solution 
finds

I was trying it on Fedora Core 2, using KDE
3.2.2-14.FC2.legacy Red Hat. I'll 
try it again when I boot into Fedora Core 5 with a much
later version of KDE, 
and Konqueror.

That's the problem with using ancient distro's, but the CLI
commands still 
work on them. The power of the command line.

Thanks for the reply.

Nigel.

Just to verify that KDE's Konqueror on Fedora Core 5 does
show in directory 
properties the number of files, and sub-folders correctly
for my 
Sounds-Library directory.

KDE version 3.5.5-0.2.fc5 Fedora-Core
