wordcount 2016/06/03 v1.7 The package 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. Following Michael's death, his family have requested that his TeX related files are made publicly available under the LPPL license. The wordcount package is available under the LaTeX Project Public License version 1 or (at your option) any later version. https://latex-project.org/lppl/ (LPPL maintenance status: unmaintained)
