Thx, Ian.

$ cc -Wall -Wextra cmp2.c -o cmp
$ ./cmp
Counter reached 19573712
$ ls -l
...
-rw-r--r-- 1 dan dan 19573712 2011-06-05 17:32 shoulder.wmv
$ cat cmp2.c

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
   int c;
   long counter = 0;
   FILE *fp;

   fp=fopen("shoulder.wmv", "rb+");

   while ((c = fgetc(fp)) != EOF)
    {
     counter++;
    }
   printf("Counter reached %ld\n", counter);
   fclose (fp);
   return 0;
   }
// cc -Wall -Wextra cmp2.c -o cmp
$

I guess I thought with counter starting at zero that the numbers 
wouldn't agree exactly, but they do.

It's a weird night here in abq; I'm gonna go out and howl at the orange 
moon.
