You might have to be a little more specific. Do you mean counting total words in a buffer? If so, here is how to do that: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/WordCount If you are talking about counting the number of times a specific word occurs in a buffer or the like, I am sure someone else has done that before and will post a solution soon. Concerning tags, can you be more specific here as well? HTML tags? rdc -- Robert D. Crawford rdc1x@comcast.net Ginger snap.
