Word and character counter
Count words, visible characters and lines in your text.
Use your own or authorized text. Results are escaped text; their content is not executed.
Up to 100,000 UTF-16 units per input. Nothing is saved or sent. CRLF/CR line breaks are interpreted as LF. Visible characters are graphemes including spaces, excluding line breaks. Empty input means zero lines.
