 +==== Counting Lines of Code (LOC) ====
 +
 +Though there are several software metrics plug-ins available, there is an easy "hack" for counting lines of code.
 +
 +  - Click on <key>Search</key>+<key>File</key>
 +  - Enter <code>\n</code> (to count all lines) or <code>\n[\s]*</code> to count non-blank lines in the "Containing text:" field
 +  - Check the "Regular expressions" checkbox
 +  - Enter <code>*.java</code> (or other file type) in the "File name patterns" field
 +  - Select the appropriate scope
 +  - Click on <key>Search</key>
 +
 +The top line of the "Search" panel will show the total number of matches (i.e., lines). You can also get matches/counts by package, file, etc.
