Hi, I am using the lyx 1.6.4 "tools -> statistics" menu item to count the words in my manuscript. The manuscript contains a lot of mathematical symbols which I would like to count as words however. Lyx counts characters, but this is unhelpful for me since I would like to count each individual mathematical operator as a word.
For example, I would like a statement such as "the following equation, x^y + f," to count as six words (three for the words, three for the symbols x^y, +, and f). Instead, lyx counts that statement as three words. Any help would be appreciated. Fun
