Comment #8 on issue 259 by [email protected]: Feature request: Count data
bytes when selecting some text

Answer.
0. I don't know why but here on my Ulipad4, your code "from common import
setmessage" doesn't work at all. Did you try it?
1. I said that before, no need to worry about unicode or not. That is a
problem for user (and they are developer too), not for you. You just need
to do "len(app.frame.document.GetSelectedText())" and let your user to
learn how it works. Besides, the current implementation can count unicode
already. Didn't you try that?
3. Whatever position in statusbar is a good position! Your example is good!
Go ahead!
