Hi,

I'm enthusiastic about OpenOffice Writer and have an idea for a feature that would make it even more popular with authors. Is it possible to create a wordcount history, so writers can see how much progress they have made, average words per day and per week, since starting the document? This simple calc is what keeps a lot of writers motivated. In an ideal world, it would be great to see numbers of words deleted as well but this probably takes a lot of storage to compare with the reference point and the point itself would be difficult to define.

BR, Shane O


My wife does this in a spreadsheet. She then can see the writing and the number of words per story/document. Running totals and totals for each document.

This was what she did during her NaNoWriMo by taking the total number of words and putting them into a spread sheet. She then graphed the data to log the data.

Maybe a macro can be created to automatically do this.
