Dear Developers,

I humbly would like to request a feature allowing to count words and characters of a document. LibreOffice does this nicely (Tools->Word Count).

Thank You

there is bottom status bar, and it might show file size in bytes, and also in characters.

This feature is available in gedit via a plugin which displays document statistics in a small dialog window. Maybe the code could be used to implement the same functionality in Mousepad.
