import sys
import fnmatch
import os
rootPath = sys.argv[1]
pattern = sys.argv[2]
total_lines = 0
lines =  0
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(rootPath):
    for filename in fnmatch.filter(files, pattern):
            filename =  os.path.join(root, filename)
           try:
            f = open(filename,"r")
             lines = len(f.readlines())
            print filename + " : %d Lines"% lines
        total_lines += lines
        except IOError:
        print "Some error"
print "\nTOTAL LINES : %s "% total_lines

Save this program as "yourfilename.py" and open a terminal
type

python yourfilename.py /yourprojectdir-path/ *.*

example :

python countlines.py "/home/x/mypro/" "*.php"

the last argumet *.php" specifies the pattern to be filtered from the list of files.
