Bash script with text and wc

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi!
I�m all new to Unix and scripts, I�ve tried to write a script for wc with text so the output looks better, can anyone help me please?
I want it like this example:

>textWc file #<scriptname> <file to to run script on>
File: file

Rows: 7

Words: 56

Signs: 1312

>

If this is a homework assignment, please read the rules!

I think signs means,you meant characters.You run the following script to do it.

if [ $# -lt 1 -o $# -gt 1 ];then
echo "<Scriptname> <file-to-run>"
exit 1
fi

rows=`wc -l $1 | cut -d ' ' -f 1 `
words=`wc -w $1| cut -d ' ' -f 1 `
characters=`wc -c $1| cut -d ' ' -f 1 `

echo -e "Filename:$1\n"

echo -e "Rows:$rows\n"

echo -e "Words:$words\n"

echo -e "Signs:$characters\n"

Its not a homework assignment!

I�ve new to Linux and installed Ubuntu one week ago, I`m just trying to make nicer outputs, I wrote a script on my own, a welcomescript and a datescript, so now one for wc too.

Relax man!
