I have this is what I call misc.el which gets loaded at run time --
relies on the aforementioned WC but works fine with M-x wc return. I
did not write this myself but cannnot remember where I cribbed it from
( all credit goes to whoever it was ).
Cheers
F
;; WORD COUNT
(defun wc ()
"Count the words in the current buffer, show the result in the
minibuffer"
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(save-restriction
(widen)
(goto-char (point-min))
(let ((count 0))
(while (forward-word 1)
(setq count(1+ count)))
(message "There are %d words in the buffer" count)))))
