Aaah, but how about counting the number of occurences in /etc/passwd :-)

Admittedly this may not work the way I expect because most people on 
alice can probably do blit-hacking on the command line. But on a dumb
terminal, I'll trade you 60kb for history and command-editing any time.
I'd even go so far as to put line editing in the tty driver, canonical
mode. [There goes my reputation...]
