WordCount (wc) Plugin

The wc plugin provides the user with the ability to count either characters or strings in any text being edited with micro.

A word is defined as a string of characters delimited by white space characters. White space characters are the set of characters for which the iswspace(3) function returns true.

A line is defined as a string of characters delimited by \n characters, or by the beginning or end of the file. \r\n line endings will be counted correctly as well, since there is only one \n per \r\n.

Character count includes white space and newline characters.

To initiate the function, you can either:

Press "F5"

Or run:

> wc
