Word-Count Bookmarklet

What is this page?

This Bookmarklet is a simple tool that tells you the word-count of any selected text on a web page. Use Ctrl + A to select the whole page. Once this button is in your Bookmarks panel, simply click on it to Activate it. I'd been wanting a simple word-count browser extension for a while, but wasn't satisfied with any that were available. So, I made my own.

What is a "Bookmarklet" and how does this Button even work?

A "Bookmarklet" is a little snippet of JavaScript that can do all sorts of neat things in your browser. It's saved like any normal "bookmark" link, except instead of linking to a webpage, it executes a little script.

If you found this script useful, please consider dropping me a tip on Ko-Fi. I don't make much, and every little bit helps.
