That script has various bugs. First of all, it does not check whether  
any returned value (in particular related to selections) is valid, it  
may return "missing value". Another thing is that a rich text property  
(such as the docText variable) doesn't have a "length" property, it  
should be first coerced into type "text" (so: "length of (docText as  
text)" will work).

And it is really annoying (buggy) that Script Editor does not truncate  
its messages.
