DW1 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Well, maybe you should read before you reply. Since everyone with common sense could understand what i meant with words and text after reading what i wrote. Especially the example in #13 and even more so after i wrote that Melbas example worked. Please recognize that it's also save to assume that i would have said it if i wanted to count words in traditional Chinese, Egyptian hieroglyphs or Martian.

BrewManNH Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Not really, you're arrogant, defensive, and belligerent. Clarification for what you wanted was needed, assuming anything might lead to pointless work to give you something that won't fit your criteria, especially when the goalposts keep moving or, in your case, weren't placed on the field at all. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

water Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 My last try: What I (and some others) tried to tell you is: You have to carefully select the word separator. The space character won't give you the correct result. Add @CRLF and @LF if you process a file. How about the hypen? Is this example ("well-formed") one or two words? Your "problem" looks simple at first glance, but gets complex the longer you think about it..

TheSaint Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Personally I'm amazed at how helpful you have all been to someone who didn't even provide any of his own code. Surely this has to be the friendliest place in the Universe, to someone who just doesn't know how to appreciate what a bunch of volunteers so selflessly give. I am so humbled and even ashamed that I was thinking of offering up harsh words to someone who is obviously bewildered by your brilliance. Make sure brain is in gear before opening mouth!

Life is like a Donut If I put effort into communication, I expect you to read properly & fully, or just not comment. Ignoring those who try to divert conversation with irrelevancies. If I'm intent on insulting you or being rude, I will be obvious, not ambiguous about it. I'm only big and bad, to those who have an over-active imagination.

bleh Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) Not really, you're arrogant, defensive, and belligerent. Sorry, but no. I just reply as i get replied to. In this case jchd, whom you just described. If you look at my profile you will find that i posted three topics since i have registered. And in every single one i have been nice and thanked everyone that helped or tried to help me. I even wrote that "i really appreciate the help" in one thread.... which i really do. That's my attitude and there is nothing wrong with it. What I (and some others) tried to tell you is: You have to carefully select the word separator. The space character won't give you the correct result. Add @CRLF and @LF if you process a file. How about the hypen? Is this example ("well-formed") one or two words? Your "problem" looks simple at first glance, but gets complex the longer you think about it.. That is great info and thinking but i have taken care of all the problems i think. I tried out several different texts (self written, c&p from websites, etc.) and counted them "by hand" to compare them to the result i get with autoit and so far i didn't find an error. TheSait..... ah... nevermind... i'm not even commenting such an uninformed opinion. Edited July 5, 2013 by bleh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bleh Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) Funny that you know what i thought and what i have problems with. But that is probably because you are so "brilliant". Clearly... citing a crappy comic show and urban dictionary is a true display of brilliance. It's also interesting that you go to a thread and post nothing but insults and crap, even though you think that "this has to be the friendliest place in the Universe" (as you said earlier).
