Thanks for the quick reply. I guess I did something wrong when I
search for "deleteKey."

By the way, why doesn't the Undo command under "Edit" in Rev work? I
accidently deleted most of my program and tried to undo it, but it
didn't work. So I decided to close the program without saving.
Annoyingly, it saved anyway and so I have to write everything over
again. I'm kind of frustrated right now.

Watch out for the case where the last character in the string is the one
you are interested in; because there isn't an item after it, this gives
the wrong result - I'd use

function charCount tText,tChar
  set the itemDelimiter to tChar
  if char -1 of tText = tChar then
    return the number of items in tText
  else
    return the number of items in tText - 1
  end if
end charCount
