Default True Word Count

Hi nrowson,

but I know exactly what I want it to mean.
Would it be possible to maybe create a macro that does a word count
according to my needs?


sure, write down you definition of a word.



Any set of characters (A-Z,a-z,0-9) with white space on either side,
including first and last word, excluding XHTML tags and hyphens.

I'm not a native speaker of english,
always afraid of sounding rude.


Not at all, thank you for your help!

I have tried the Readability Statisics which is an improvement but still out
from what I want.

Thanks again.
