Character count for Chinese/Japanese is incorrect #631

Closed liziwl closed 5 years ago

liziwl commented 5 years ago

Describe the bug Word count error for Chinese simplified/ traditional, Japanese

Context

Expected behavior

  1. Word count: Line 1 -- 6 words; Line 2 -- 6 words, Line 3 -- 12 words, Total: 24 words, 24 characters. For Chinese simplified/ traditional or Japanese, each character is a word. Maybe character count is enough. Or word count only counts characters and excludes space and punctuation.

  2. newline "\n" seems to be wrongly counted in character count.
