You changed:

-	count=$(grep -c '^[^#]' < "$DONE")
+	count="$(grep -c '^[^#]' "$DONE")"

It turns out that GNU grep and AIX 4.3's grep don't write the file name if
only one name was given. Nevertheless, by passing the data on stdin we are
on the safe side. And, btw, the outer quotes are not needed in this
assignment.
