first patch for the fontend (glade) (31.55 KB, patch)

Description David Malcolm 2004-02-22 01:59:26 UTC 
Conglomerate should have a word-count feature (very useful for authors)

This could be located in the File->Properties dialog: perhaps a tab giving
statistics about the document, which would update as you edit?

Should it count words in comments?  I think it shouldn't.

Other possible statistics:
How many elements?
How many chapters/paras etc - would vary by dispspec
Is the document valid?

Implementation notes:  to be efficient we probably need to have an object
that caches the calculated information about each stat, and updates
accordingly as the edits occur.

I've followed the past syntax for the variables names.

Looks good.  Thanks!

We should commit this to CVS once we have the backend to go with it.

I'd probably reword the "Document valid or not" label, but let's leave it for
now (I can't think of a good way to do this).
