I understand that a script exists that will allow one to get a word count

You'd assign it to a commander, at least that's the easiest way I can think
of. You'll also need the Talking Dashboard scripts, since that zip file

Re: Looking for a Script to Give a Word Count in TextEdit
I'm glad it works. :) Anyone else can use it too, so long as you have Talking
Dashboard:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17005121/talking%20dashboard.zip
Again, this script will be in the next update to that, but it will work right
now if you paste the code into Script Editor and save the file in the same
folder as the other Talking Dashboard scripts.
