                        Feature Request: Count words and characters in notes and/or selected text
Describe your feature request Please add a feature that allows you to see how many words/characters a document and/or selected text has.
Additional context Something when drafting texts - for which I use FSNotes quite often - is important to have. Could be e.g. as a simple menu option when right clicking.
I agree this would be useful.
Until then, it is available to any and all text editing apps through use of a macOS Service.
The one I use displays a notification, and I summon it using a hotkey (keyboard shortcut).
