A word counter for raw Markdown files, excluding punctuation, footnotes, and special Markdown or HTML tag syntax.
You will need...
- 🐍 Python 3
- 🐑 PIP3 or a clone of this repo.
The easiest way is to run:
pip install markdown-word-count
Then, you'll be able to analyze any file by passing its name (relative path) to the mwc script:
mwc yourfile.md
You can also pass in multiple files or a blob if your shell supports it. This allows for checking all files in a folder, for example.
mwc text1.md text2.md
mwc test/*.md
If you want to clone the repo and run the Python script manually, run:
python mwc/cli.py myfile.md
If this doesn't work, try python3 instead of python.
Run this to execute all tests:
python -m unittest discover
