      This is the home page of "SLOCCount", a set of tools for
      counting physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) in a large number
      of languages of a potentially large set of programs.  This suite
      of tools was used in my papers More than a Gigabuck: Estimating
      GNU/Linux's Size and Estimating Linux's Size to measure the SLOC
      of entire GNU/Linux distributions, and my essay Linux Kernel
      2.6: It's Worth More!  Others have measured Debian GNU/Linux and
      the Perl CPAN library using this tool suite.
