Thom Hickey wrote about the "linefeed trick". That was a bit of a
"duh" moment for me. But then, I've seldom had the need to grep
a marc format file.

He also mentioned wc -l working better with that. I've gotten around
that with a short Perl program: go to

  http://homepages.wmich.edu/~zimmer/marc_index.html

and look for marccount.pl.

It doesn't require any modifications to the marc file, but I suspect
that others have written something like that, too.
