Ditto, I've been using a local variant called lc (letter count) for
several years.  It's part of my basic toolset, and it's surprising how
often I need to use this "trivial" tool.  (If anyone wants my code and
manual entry, mail me.)

The flame about the original posting is akin to saying: "Anyone can
build a screwdriver.  So don't bother giving away copies of yours."
Well, I must own 20 screwdrivers, scattered here and there, but I'll
still consider another one, especially if it's free.
