Let me test and see. Here's what it's doing. I typed exactly what you see on the next line. How many words is this? Now, that's five words, obviously. It tells me that there are six words and 19 characters. Now, How many words is this? Actually, that's twenty two characters counting the spaces and the question mark at the end. At least in Text edit, it sure doesn't seem very relyable does it?
