Version: (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages When using kate for editing texts as a journalist, I am usually asked not to write more than a certain number of characters. I have not found any option to show the total number of characters (including blanks) or words. The ideal place would be the status line at the bottom. --RAS
