wordcountEstimate the number of words in a LaTeX document.
Provides a relatively easy way of estimating the number of words in a LaTeX document that does not require dvitty or other DVI converters; it does however require something like Unix grep -c that can search a file for a particular string and report the number of matching lines. An accompanying shell script wordcount.sh contains more information in its comments. This package was implemented by Michael J. Downes and catalogued for CTAN.
