Feature request: Chapter word/character count

Post by typofi »

To make sure this isn't a case of simply "it was posted in the wrong area", I am reposting this feature request here.

As was first suggested already in 2008, it would be great to have Mellel showing word/character count for chapters or sections. Perhaps they could be activated to show in the outline panel. Or if one would choose a section in the outline panel, the statistics panel could give its information similarly to how selecting a section of text does.

Considering that Mellel already knows how to treat the sections as separate things (as they can be dragged around to change their order) I imagine this might not be too difficult to implement?

This would be an invaluable help.
