------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Sep 16 09:33:06 -0700 2005 ------- I recently installed 2.0 Beta 1, and while there is much to be very happy about, the word count feature is **STILL** next to useless for anyone using Asian (double-byte) text. I find it very difficult to believe that counting chars and checking for double- or single-byte-ness is so hard that this hasn't been implemented yet. OOo is *clearly* aware of double-byte-ness, given the presence of Asian language support options and formatting capabilities. So why oh why has this been neglected yet again? Why is double-byte Asian text counted as _words_, when the very concept doesn't really exist (at least for Japanese)? I'll attach a short sample presently. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
