It assumes that you +# have a program "grep" with a -c option meaning "Report the number of +# matching lines". To use perl or some other tool instead of grep, +# redefine $COUNT in some suitable way, below. +# +# The characters that are counted with this method are actual font +# characters in the page body (excluding running heads): in math, each +# subscript and superscript character is counted separately, even when +# they appear one over the other; and so are the separate combining +# pieces used to make large delimiters. Interword spaces are counted as +# separate characters, and so are the spaces around mathrel symbols in +# math formulas (equal signs and the like)---but not the spaces around +# mathbin symbols (plus, minus, and the like). +# +# You can count words by dividing the character count by 5 (or +# whatever), or by counting the occurrences of interword spaces. The +# latter method (illustrated here) is highly accurate at counting the +# actual number of words---until tables or math formulas enter the +# picture. In the case of tables, the number of words will tend to be +# overestimated because tabskip glue, counted as an interword space, +# appears on both sides of each table cell. (Not counting the tabskip +# glue at all would result in an underestimate, and the underestimate +# would tend to be slightly less accurate than the overestimate that we +# have chosen to do.) +# +# And of course, in the case of math formulas, how do you define what is +# a "word"? + +SCRIPT=`basename $0` +LOGFILE=wordcount.log +COUNT="grep -c" +LATEX=latex + +die () { + echo "$@ was apparently unsuccessful." + exit 1 +} + +no_files_msg () { + echo "$SCRIPT: At least one file name must be supplied" \ + "on the command line." + exit 1 +} + +case X$1 in + X) no_files_msg ;; + *) : ;; +esac + +for f in "$@" +do + # Since \? is not defined by LaTeX itself, this use via \csname causes + # it to be defined as \relax, and it then serves as a filename + # terminator.
