[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 38983] Word Count counts incorrectly with dashes and other separators
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38983 --- Comment #12 from Caolán McNamara caol...@redhat.com 2012-08-28 09:29:55 UTC --- re comment #6 the CH_TXTATR_BREAKWORD there is a special case to filter out words which consist of a special internal placeholder character. So forget about that, the meat is in SwScanner::NextWord which determines the bounds of the words, backed mostly by icu's word break iterator -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38983 --- Comment #10 from Jamee Mikell jamee.mik...@gmail.com 2012-04-20 09:21:49 PDT --- Comment on attachment 60399 -- https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=60399 Example of outline spreadsheet described in comment 9. re: comment 8 It's possible I could figure out LO's macro language and object structures. I have developed (and currently maintain and enhance) macros in VBA for Excel, and made a living coding C and learned a little Python for a couple of small side projects I did, and used various other languages off and on, so it isn't like I have no programming background. But I'd rather be writing fiction, and I haven't found much to help me understand LO's macro language or object structure. I didn't find any extensions or such that offered more sophisticated word counting. The one or two examples I found rely on the underlying (flawed in my opinion) word count method or implement the same method in their own code. To be honest, though, if I did write a macro, I'd write it to look for a specific section break identifier (e.g., eol#eol) that would be entered as part of a dialog and then report word count data for each section. Or use bookmarks and count between bookmarks. Probably other options for defining breaks too. In the end, I decided this issue wasn't going to get solved in a way that meets my needs any time soon so I modified my outline spreadsheet for this writing project. See attachment OutlineExample.ods. Each time I edit a section (part of a chapter), I run the default word count and record the LO word count and the count of characters including spaces on the section's row in the spreadsheet. I sum up the two sets of numbers--LO words and characters--at the end of each set of sections and report LO words and char/6 and char/6 and char/X, where X is a value I determined was a reasonable estimate of characters per page based on sampling several comparable books. I can also estimate char/6 given char for any single section if I need to. This helps me balance the size of books and, to a lesser extent, sections and chapters. If someone would like to write a macro or extension or enhance LO to facilitate more sophisticated word counting methods that fiction writers and others who care about word count might find useful, I would be grateful. I occasionally make changes with find/replace across the whole document, which requires going recounting each section to update the count data. But as I noted, I'd rather write fiction than spend a lot of time figuring out how LO's macro language works and how the Writer objects work and such. If I already knew LO's macro language and objects, it would probably be a different story. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
