It is a lower case letter L after wc not a pipe vertical bar character
Ok, that did the trick. I had to go back to the remote shell connection though. wasn’t working from the mac terminal. thanks again it’s helpful to see how many tracks get pulled in. My AIFF file looks low so I’m going to take a closer look at that file.
Edit - ok, looking at the original larger file it looks like my files are *.aif and *aiff so I missed some when I applied that filter.
If you want to find files with two different patterns in the names you can or the conditions
find /share/Public/Music -type f \( -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.mp3' \) -print
but if you simply want *.aif and *.aiff then
find /share/Public/Music -type f -name '*.aif*' -print

Pulling both aif and aiff did the trick. The file now has about 12K rows which seems about right.
