Re: word count in text edit

2015-08-02 Thread Paul Erkens
Hi Jim and others,

What a wonderful tip that is. I have been running into mac versus unix files 
since I’m using mac and windows side by side. Word count, sort lines, convert 
from mac to windows formatting etc, wow. Thanks a lot. And for those 
interested: yes, it’s in the mac app store. Still exploring all its 
capabilities.

Hth,
Paul.

 If you look for an app called word service it will let you install several 
 services that work with many applications and one of them is a word count 
 service.  Also sorting is another handy service that I use quite a bit.

actually that's not where I got the word count.  It is an apple script that I 
converted to run like an app.  Not sure if I can post it to this list but if 
you want to email me I can send it as an attachment.  Not sure where I got it.

tell document 1 of application TextEdit
set wordcount to the (count of words) as text
set charactercount to the (count of characters) as text
end tell
say wordcount   words and   charactercount   characters

Hi Ray, 
All you need to do is to copy and paste the script in to the script source edit 
field within a new document using AppleScript Editor and save the script in a 
preferred location. Once this has been done, you can use the VO keyboard 
commander to create a shortcut key to activate the script.
Hope this helps.
