<![CDATA[Emulation of the "View > Summary" feature with a Python script]]>Hello All,

Before Feb. 18 2024, the title of this topic was : Tests and impressions on the "View > Summary...' feature

Recently, I’ve been looking at the results given by the N++ Summary feature ( View > Summary... ). And I must say that numerous things are really weird !

For tests, I used contents with a lot of Unicode characters, both, in the Basic Multilingual Plane and, sometimes, over the BMP too, saved in the 4 N++ Unicode encodings files as well as in an ANSI file, containing the 256 characters of the Windows-1252 encoding :

  • ANSI
  • UTF-8
  • UTF-8-BOM
  • UCS-2 BE BOM
  • UCS-2 LE BOM

To my mind, there are 3 major problems and some minor points :

  • The first and worse problem is the fact that, when an UTF-8[-BOM] file, containing various Unicode chars ( of the BMP only : this point is important ! ) is copied in an UCS-2 BE BOM or UCS-2 LE BOM encoded file, some results, given by the Summary feature for these new files, are totally wrong :

    • The characters( without line endings ) value seems to be the number of bytes used in the corresponding UTF-8[-BOM] file

    • The Document length value seems to be the document length of the corresponding UTF-8[-BOM] file and is also displayed, unfortunately, in the status bar !

  • The second problem is that the definition of a word char, by the Summary feature is definitively NOT the same of the definition of the regex \w, as explained further on !

  • Thus, the third problem is that the of given number of words is totally inaccurate ! And, anyway, the number of words, although well enough defined for an English / American text, is rather a vague notion, for a lot of texts written in other languages, especially Asiatic ones ! ( See further on )

  • Some minor things :

    • The number of lines given is, most of the time, increased by one unit

    • Presently, the Summary feature displays the document length in the Notepad++ buffer. I think it would be good to display, as well, the actual document length saved on disk. Incidentally, for just saved documents, it would give, by difference, the length of the possible Byte Order Mark, if its size wouldn’t be explicitly displayed !

    • For UTF-8 or UTF-8-BOM encoded files, a decomposition, giving the number of chars coded with 1, 2, 3 and 4 bytes, for chars over the BMP, would be welcome !

So, in brief, in the present Summary window :

  • The Characters (without line endings): number is wrong for the UCS-2 BE BOM or UCS-2 LE BOM encodings

  • The Words number is totally wrong, given the regex definition of a word character, whatever the encoding used

  • The Lines: number is wrong, by one unit, if a line-break ends the last line of current file, in any encoding

  • The Document length value, in N++ buffer, is wrong for the UCS-2 BE BOM or UCS-2 LE BOM encodings, as well as the Length: indication in the status bar

Note, that I’m about to create an issue for the wrong results returned for UCS-2 BE BOM and UCS-2 LE BOM encoded files !

To begin with, let’s me develop the… second bug ! After numerous tests, I determined that, in the present View > Summary... feature, the characters, considered a word character, are :

  • The C0 control characters, except for the Tabulation ( \x{0009} ) and the two EOL ( \x{000a} and \x{000d} ), so the regex (?![\t\r\n])[\x00-\x1F]

  • The number sign #

  • The 10 digits, so the regex [0-9] :

  • The 26 uppercase and lowercase letters, so the regex (?i)[A-Z]

  • The low line character _

  • All the characters, of the Basic Multilingual Plane ( BMP ), with code-point over \x{007E}, so the regex (?![\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}])[\x{007F}-\x{FFFF}] for a Unicode encoded file or [\x7F-\xFF] for an ANSI encoded file

  • All the characters, over the Basic Multilingual Plane, so the regex (?-s).[\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}] for an Unicode encoded file, only

To simulate the present Words: number ( which is erroneous ! ), given by the summary feature, whatever the file encoding, simply use the regex below :

[^\t\n\r\x20!"$%&'()*+,\-./:;<=>?@\x5B\x5C\x5D^\x60{|}~]+

and click on the Count button of the Find dialog, with the Wrap around option ticked

Obviously, this is not exact as a single word character is matched with the \w regex, which is the class [\u\l\d_], where \u, \l and \d represents any Unicode uppercase, lowercase and digit char or a related char, so, finally, much more than the simple [A-Za-z0-9] set !

But , worse, it’s the notion of word which is practically, not consistent, most of the time ! Indeed, for instance, if we consider the French expression l'école ( the school ), the regex \w+ would return 2 words, which is correct as this expression can be mentally decomposed as la école. However, this regex would wrongly say the that the single word aujourd'hui ( today ) is a two-words expression. Of course, you could change the regex as [\w']+ which would return 1 word, but, this time, the expression l'école would wrongly be considered as a one-word string !

In addition, what can be said about languages that do not use the Space character or where the use of the Space is discretionary ? Then, counting of words is impossible or rather non-significant ! This is developed in this Martin Haspelmath’s article, below :

https://zenodo.org/record/225844/files/WordSegmentationFL.pdf

At end of section 5, it is said : … On such a view, the claim that “all languages have words” (Radford et al. 1999: 145) would be interpretable only in the weaker sense that "all languages have a unit which falls between the minimal sign and the phrase” …

And : … The basic problem remains the same: The units are defined in a language-specific way and cannot be equated across languages, and there is no reason to give special status to a unit called ‘word’. …

At beginning of section, 7 : … Linguists have no good basis for identifying words across languages …

And in the conclusion, section 10 : … I conclude, from the arguments presented in this article, that there is no definition of ‘word’ that can be applied to any language and that would yield consistent results …

Now, the Unicode definition of a word character is :

\p{gc=Alphabetic} | \p{gc=Mark} | \p{gc=Decimal_Number} | \p{gc=Connector_Punctuation} | \p{Join-Control}

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5555613/does-w-match-all-alphanumeric-characters-defined-in-the-unicode-standard

https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Simple_Word_Boundaries

So, in theory, the word_character class should include :

  • All values of the derived category Alphabetic ( = alpha = \p{alphabetic} ) so 132,875 chars, from the DerivedCoreProperties.txt file, which can be decomposed into :

    • Uppercase_Letter (Lu) + Lowercase_Letter (Ll) + Titlecase_Letter (Lt) + Modifier_Letter (Lm) + Other_Letter (Lo) + Letter_Number (Nl) + Other_Alphabetic, so the characters sum 1,791 + 2,155 + 31 + 260 + 127,004 + 236 + 1,398

    • Note : The last property Other_Alphabetic, from the Prop_list.txt file, contains some, but not all, characters from the 3 General_Categories Spacing_Mark ( Mc ), Nonspacing_Mark ( Mn ) and Other_Symbol ( So ), so the characters sum 417 + 851 + 130

  • All values with General_Category = Decimal_Number, from the DerivedGeneralCategory.txt file, so 650 characters

    ( These are characters, with defined values in the three fields 6, 7 and 8 of the UnicodeData.txt file

  • All values with General_Category = Connector_Punctuation, from the DerivedGeneralCategory.txt file, so 10 characters

  • All values with the binary Property Join_Control, from the PropList.txt file, so 2 characters

So, if we include all Unicode languages, even historical ones :

=> Total number of Unicode word characters = 132,875 + 650 + 10 + 2 = 133,537 characters, with version UNICODE 13.0.0 !!

Notes :

  • The different files mentioned can be downloaded from the Unicode Character Database ( UCD ) or sub-directories, below :

http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd/

  • And refer to the sites, below, for additional information to this topic :

https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Compatibility_Properties

https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/#Word_Boundaries

https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr31/    for tables 4, 5 and 6 of section 2.4

https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr44/#UnicodeData.txt

If someone did click on the links to the Unicode Consortium, above, one understood, very quickly, that word characters and word boundaries notions are a real nightmare !

Even if we restrict the definition of word chars to Unicode living scripts, forgetting all the historical scripts not in use, and also leaving aside all scripts which do not use the space char to, systematically, delimit words, we still have a list of about 21,000 characters which should be considered as word character ! I tried to build up such a list, with the help of these sites :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Writing_systems_without_word_boundaries

https://linguistlist.org/issues/6/6-1302/

https://unicode-org.github.io/cldr-staging/charts/37/supplemental/scripts_and_languages.html

https://scriptsource.org/cms/scripts/page.php?item_id=script_overview

https://r12a.github.io/scripts/featurelist/

And I ended up with this list of 46 living scripts which always use a Space character between words :

Hi Guy. Yes, I did receive it but haven’t had time to work with it. Because of your prompting, however, I just did finish evaluating it.

I believe that what is happening in the buggy case is that THIS PS bug is manifesting (side note: it’s a bug that I reported). When the caret is at the first location in the file (aka position 0) – which is one of your test cases – then the bug kicks in.

The bug has been fixed, but I don’t believe there has been a release of PS2 after the fixing, so only PS3 contains the fix (which is why I – running PS3 – did not see a problem with your script code that did not include the bytes_count check against 0).

I hope this clears it up.

Well, I tried, using both PS3 and PS2, using license file and code change of: #if Bytes_count != 0:, and I still see in the output:

Ah… OK. No problem ! So, this script will work with both Python script 2 and 3, nice !

Regarding the bug, I can reproduce it very easily !

So, we use this part of the script, relative to selections, where I put the line if Bytes_count != 0: in comments :

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Num_sel = editor.getSelections()  # Get ALL selections ( EMPTY or NOT )

if Num_sel != 0:

    Bytes_count = 0
    Chars_count = 0
    Words_count = 0

    for n in range(Num_sel):

        Bytes_count += editor.getSelectionNEnd(n) - editor.getSelectionNStart(n)
        Chars_count += editor.countCharacters(editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))

        num = 0
#        if Bytes_count != 0:
        editor.research(r'\w+', number, 0, editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))
        Words_count += num

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then :

  • Open, let’s say, the license.txt file

  • Move the caret to the very beginning of the license.txt file ( so, before the letter C of the word COPYING )

  • Do not do any selection

  • Run the script

=> You should see, in the SELECTION(S) line, a non-null number of words :

 SELECTION(S)      :  0 selected char, 5822 selected words (0 selected byte) in 1 EMPTY range

  • Now, just move the caret one character on the right ( so, between the C and the O letters of the word COPYING )

  • Do not do any selection, again

  • Re-run the script

=> This time, we get, for the SELECTION(S) line, the expected results :

 SELECTION(S)      :  0 selected char, 0 selected word (0 selected byte) in 1 EMPTY range

At first sight, this bug occurs only when the caret is at the very beginning of current file !

Once, you’ll find an explanation ( if any ! ), I will post the new version of the script.

P.S. : May be, this bug do not occur with Python script 3 ?

But if this unique zero-length selection was on a non-empty line, it would wrongly write…

I removed the if Bytes_count != 0: and tried to replicate the problem you indicated, but did not see the same issue. Can you provide more detail on your “steps to reproduce”?

Also, this line of your script gave me an error under Python3:

File_name = notepad.getCurrentFilename().decode('utf-8')

Here’s a way to make it work under Python2 or 3:

import sys

Below, the v1.2 version of the Python script for an enhanced Summary feature :

  • I decomposed the total number of chars in 3 parts : EOL chars, Space and Tab chars and True chars ( [^\t\x20\r\n] )

  • I also decomposed the total number of word chars in 3 parts : letters chars, digits chars and low_line chars

  • I added a count of the paragraphs ( You may adapt the corresponding regex to your needs )

  • I added a count of the sentences ( You may adapt the corresponding regex to your needs )

  • I added some remarks at the end of the summary report, regarding the global accurancy of some results !

Now, Alan, I needed to change this part, regarding the selections :

    for n in range(Num_sel):

        Bytes_count += editor.getSelectionNEnd(n) - editor.getSelectionNStart(n)
        Chars_count += editor.countCharacters(editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))

        num = 0
        editor.research(r'\w+', number, 0, editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))
        Words_count += num

by this one :

    for n in range(Num_sel):

        Bytes_count += editor.getSelectionNEnd(n) - editor.getSelectionNStart(n)
        Chars_count += editor.countCharacters(editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))

        num = 0
        if Bytes_count != 0:
            editor.research(r'\w+', number, 0, editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))
        Words_count += num

Because, if the unique zero-length selection was on a pure empty line, it did write, as expected, the message :

0 selected char, 0 selected word (0 selected byte) in 1 EMPTY range

But if this unique zero-length selection was on a non-empty line, it would wrongly write, for example :

0 selected char, **`568`** selected words (0 selected byte) in 1 EMPTY range

Given that the total file contains 568 words

So, here is the v1.2 version of my script, split on two posts :

Many thanks for the tip ! I did some Google searches before, but just saw some obscur explanations. But, right now, trying again with this question :

How to get "os.path.isfile(Filename)" == True: when Filename contains "NON ASCII" chars ?

And reading the first article, named “python - UnicodeEncodeError on joining file name”, on Jan. 05 2010, from the site Stack Overflow, it is textually said, in the middle of the article :

So I would first try filename = filename.decode('utf-8') -- that should allow the os.path.join to work

Now, I won’t bother to re-edit my script with a new version number ! I just changed, in my v1.1 version, above, the line :

File_name = notepad.getCurrentFilename()

by this one :

File_name = notepad.getCurrentFilename().decode('utf-8')

BR

how to recognize the filename even if current file or current path contain NON-ASCII characters ?

Short answer: This is better done with Python3, i.e., PythonScript 3.x. Then things “just work”. :-)

But, for Python2, (and PS 2.x) you can make a call to .encode('utf-8') or .decode('utf-8') – depending upon your circumstance (I’m not commenting on your specific code) – in order to get what you need.

Basically, if you have a Python2 string (in a variable s) and you want to get a Unicode string (for things like Windows pathnames with non-trivial characters), use s.decode('utf-8') and to go the other way, where you have a Unicode str (in a variable u) and you want a Python2 str, do u.encode('utf-8').

I’ve just found out a bug when trying to run my script against à “French” file called Numéros ( which means Numbers ) :-((

In that Python section of my script below, it detects if the current tab is associated with a true file, saved on disk, or if the current tab refers to a new # file, not saved yet

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

File_name = notepad.getCurrentFilename()

if os.path.isfile(File_name) == True:

    Creation_date = time.ctime(os.path.getctime(File_name))

    Modif_date = time.ctime(os.path.getmtime(File_name))

    Size_length = os.path.getsize(File_name)

    RO_flag = 'YES'

    if os.access(File_name, os.W_OK):
        RO_flag = 'NO'

# --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And unfortunately, if current name contains accentuated characters, like Numéros, it wrongly suppose it’s a new # file !

As soon as it is renamed as Numeros, everything is OK again

So, how to recognize the filename even if current file or current path contain NON-ASCII characters ?

TIA

Following your advice, I included the number of selected words \w+ in the last line of the summary report, regarding the different selections

If needed, the OP may choose this second syntax, which includes the hyphen, the apostrophe and the Right Single Quotation Mark, when surrounded by word chars, as true words chars !

SEARCH (?:(?<=\w)[-'’](?=\w)|\w)+

And thus, replace the line

        editor.research(r'\w+', number, 0, editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))

by this one :

        editor.research(r'(?:(?<=\w)[-'’](?=\w)|\w)+', number, 0, editor.getSelectionNStart(n), editor.getSelectionNEnd(n))

I was considering recommending your script as a basis for the solution to THIS inquiry, but then I noticed that your script doesn’t report word-count in selected text – perhaps it should do that as well?

Remenber that you can use a shorter summary report by changing the line :

Line_end = '\r\n'

by this one :

Line_end = ''

You’ll find, below, the v1.0 version of my script. I changed a lot of things :

  • I add a counter to get the execution time of the script, which is written right after the current date, at the beginning of the summary

  • I modified some regexes in order to improve their performance as well as the order to search them for

  • I used the Pythonscript methods .editor.getLength(), editor.countCharacters(0, editor.getLength()) and editor.getLineCount() to get, respectively, the bytes length ( without a possible BOM ) value, the Total_chars value and the Total_lines value. Note that, in case of an UTF-8 or UTF-8-BOM encoded file, we get two relations :

    • (A) Buffer length - Total_EOL - Total_1_byte - 2 × Total_2_bytes - 3 × Total_3_bytes = 4 × Total_4_bytes
    • (B) Total_Chars - Total_EOL - Total_1_byte - Total_2_bytes - Total_3_bytes           = Total_4_bytes

So, we can deduce, from the relation A-B, the equations :

Total_4_bytes = ( Total_length - Total_chars - Total_2_bytes - 2 × Total_3_bytes ) / 3

and then :

Total_1_byte = Total_chars - Total_EOL - Total_2_bytes - Total_3_bytes - Total_4_bytes

Thus, after counting the number of Total_2_bytes and Total_3_bytes, the two results Total_4_bytes and Total_1_byte are easily deduced. This new way decreases, from a factor 2 to 3, the execution time of the script, because, most of the time, the file contains only 1-byte chars :-))

However, the Buffer_length value wrongly remains the same, in case of an UTF-16 BE BOM or UTF-16 LE BOM encoded file. Thus, I needed to calcul the Total_4_bytes and Buffer_length values, from the number of Total_2_bytes, with the relations :

Total_4_bytes = Total_chars - Total_EOL - Total_2_bytes

Bytes_length = 2 * Total_EOL + 2 * Total_2_bytes + 4 × Total_4_bytes

  • Now, because some huge files may lead to a long time before getting the Summary results ( even with the native N++ version, BTW ! ), you can follow the progression of the different searches on the Python console, which is automatically enabled at beginning of the script and disabled right before outputting the results

  • At the end of the script, I just replace the notepad.prompt method by the notepad.messageBox method in order to display the warning ( more logical ! )

IMPORTANT :

  • Never switch to an other tab when running this script. Else, you’ll probably get unpredictable or negative results !

  • Thus, by viewing the console messages, if you think that the results seem too long to happen for a specific file and that you prefer to abort its Summary report, simply stop the current Python script with the classical Plugins > Python Script > Stop script menu option

Now, I was a bit upset by some inconsistant results regarding the number of NON-SPACE strings, when current file, with an Unicode encoding, contains some bytes over the BMP

So, I searched among all my posts, since 2013, as well as some others used as documentation, for only those containing some four-bytes characters and here is the list of these files with the reported results :

From that list, I deduced that the number of NON-space chars is erroneous in very rare cases, especially when current file contains consecutively :

  • All the characters of a font

  • All the characters of an Unicode range

  • All the characters of all Unicode ranges

Luckily, in all the other cases, with a random position of these four-bytes chars, the Summary report always gives the right results, regarding the NON-SPACE count !

Here is the v1.0 version of my script, split on two posts :

I realized that it was the mess regarding the line_endings, in the Summary report. Thus, by defining a Line_end variable equal to \r\n, the results are more harmonious !

One advantage : if you do not want any supplementary line-break, in the Summary report, simply change the line :

Line_end = '\r\n'

by this one :

Line_end = ''

So, just test this script against any file, to get any possible bug or limitation !!

I’ve also heard of compiled regexes in Python. Would that be interesting for this script ?

  • So, I followed the excellent @mark-olson’s suggestion to bypass the clipboard functionality !

  • Now, in case of a RuntimeError, when searching for the NON-SPACE count of characters, I used an exception which displays a warning message, if the Err_Regex is True. But, even when the Err_Regex variable is False, the result is not totally guaranteed too, if the analyzed file contains bytes over the BMP.

So, globally, whatever the Err_Regex status, the NON-SPACE count value may be increased or decreased by 1, in some cases ( still unclear ) !

Here is the v0.7 version of my script ( I indeed gave a version number to my successive attempts ! )

editor.copyText (‘\r\n’.join(line_list))

notepad.new()

editor.paste()

editor.copyText(‘’)

Couldn’t you just do

notepad.new()
editor.setText('\r\n'.join(line_list))

and thus avoid overwriting the user’s clipboard?

The way to use this script is quite self-explanatory. Just three points to emphazise :

  • On the BUFFER length line, the values between parentheses :

    • Always begin with the number of EOL ( I omitted the b after x 1, on purpose ! )

      • Followed with the number of the 1-BYTE for an ANSI encoded file

      • Followed with the numbers of the 1-BYTE, 2-BYTES, 3-BYTES and 4-BYTES, for an UTF-8 or UTF-8-BOM encoded file

      • Followed with the numbers of the 2-BYTES and 4-BYTES, for an UTF-16 BE BOM or UTF-16 LE BOM encoded file

  • Normally, when a file is saved the values BUFFEER length and Length on DISK should always be equal. If not, two cases are possible :

    • This file have been recently modified ( trivial case )

    • The file is not identified with a BOM and has been re-interpreted with an other NON-Unicode encoding. Then, apply the actions, indicated in the pop-up message !

  • For a new # file, some values are obviously absent. These are the MODIFICATION date, the CREATION date, the READ-ONLY flag and the Length on DISK ( size ) values

Remarks : Although most of the regexes, above, can be easily understood, here are some additional elements :

  • The regex (?-s).[\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}] is the sole correct syntax, with our Boost regex engine, to count all the characters over the BMP. But it may fail with the message Ran out of stack space trying to match the regular expression.. Luckily, I do not use it because it can be deduced from the difference Total_Standard - Total_BMP

  • The regex (?s)((?!\s).[\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}]?)+, to count all the Non_Space strings, was explained before but may fail with the message Ran out of stack space trying to match the regular expression.

  • In all the regexes, relative to the counting of lines, you probably noticed the character class [\f\x{0085}\x{2028}\x{2029}]. It must be present because the four characters \f, \x{0085} , \x{2028} and \x{2029} are, both, considered as a start and an End of line, like the assertions ^ and $ !

    • For instance, if, in a new file, you insert one Next_Line char ( NEL ), of code-point \x{0085} and hit the Enter key, this sole line is wrongly seen as an empty line by the simple regex ^(?:\r\n|\r|\n) which matches the line-break after the Next_Line char !

Then, with the help of the excellent Babel Map software, updated for Unicode v13.0``

https://www.babelstone.co.uk/Software/BabelMap.html

I succeeded to create a list of the 21,143 remaining characters, from the living scripts, above, which should be truly considered as word character, without any ambiguity

On the other hand, with the help of my Total_Chars.txt, which contains 325,590 characters, I detected 48,031 word chars with the simple search of the \w regex. This number seems important but include all the Chinese characters and equivalent chars which cannot be truly counted as word chars because of their vertical / horizontal way of writing !

In addition, when applying the regex \t\w\t against this list above, I got a total of 17,307 word characters, only, because, probably, Notepad++ does not use the Boost regex library with FULL Unicode support

Indeed, after some verifications :

  • The Boost definition of the regex \w does not consider all the characters over the BMP

  • Some characters of the BMP, although alphabetic, are not considered, yet, as word chars

For instance, in this short list, below, each Unicode char, surrounded with two tabulation chars, cannot be found with the regex \t\w\t, although that each char is, indeed, seen as a word by the Unicode Consortium` :-((

 24B6   Ⓐ     ; Other_Symbol     # So         CIRCLED LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A
1D400   𝐀     ; Uppercase_Letter # Lu         MATHEMATICAL BOLD CAPITAL A
1D70B   𝜋     ; Lowercase_Letter # Ll         MATHEMATICAL ITALIC SMALL PI
1F150   🅐     ; Other_symbol     # So         NEGATIVE CIRCLED LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A

To my mind, for all these reasons, as we cannot rely on the word notion, the View > Summary... feature should just ignore the number of words or, at least, add the indication With caution !

By contrast, I think that it would be useful to count the number of Non_Space strings, determined with the regex \S+. Indeed, we would get more confident results ! The boundaries of Non_Space strings, which are the Space characters, belong to the well-defined list of the 25 Unicode characters with the binary property White_Space, from the PropList.txt file. Refer to the very beginning of this file :

http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd/PropList.txt

As a reminder, the regex \s is identical to \h|\v. So, it represents the complete character class [\t\x20\xA0\x{1680}\x{2000}-\x{200B}\x{202F}\x{3000}]|[\n\x0B\f\r\x85\x{2028}\x{2029}] which can be re-ordered as :

\s = [\t\n\x0B\f\r\x20\x85\xA0\x{1680}\x{2000}-\x{200B}\x{2028}\x{2029}\x{202F}\x{3000}]

Note that, in practice, the \s regex is mainly equivalent to the simple regex [\t\n\r\x20]

Here is that Unicode list of all Unicode characters with the property White_Space, with their name and their General_Category value :

0009  TAB  ; White_Space    # Cc    TABULATION  <control-0009>
000A  LF   ; White_Space    # Cc    LINE FEED  <control-000A>
000B       ; White_Space    # Cc    VERTICAL TABULATION  <control-000B>
000C    ; White_Space    # Cc    FORM FEED  <control-000C>
000D  CR   ; White_Space    # Cc    CARRIAGE RETURN  <control-000D>
0020       ; White_Space    # Zs    SPACE
0085…    ; White_Space    # Cc    NEXT LINE  <control-0085>
00A0       ; White_Space    # Zs    NO-BREAK SPACE
1680       ; White_Space    # Zs    OGHAM SPACE MARK
2000       ; White_Space    # Zs    EN QUAD
2001       ; White_Space    # Zs    EM QUAD
2002       ; White_Space    # Zs    EN SPACE
2003       ; White_Space    # Zs    EM SPACE
2004       ; White_Space    # Zs    THREE-PER-EM SPACE
2005       ; White_Space    # Zs    FOUR-PER-EM SPACE
2006       ; White_Space    # Zs    SIX-PER-EM SPACE
2007       ; White_Space    # Zs    FIGURE SPACE
2008       ; White_Space    # Zs    PUNCTUATION SPACE
2009       ; White_Space    # Zs    THIN SPACE
200A       ; White_Space    # Zs    HAIR SPACE
2028
    ; White_Space    # Zl    LINE SEPARATOR
2029
    ; White_Space    # Zp    PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR
202F       ; White_Space    # Zs    NARROW NO-BREAK SPACE
205F       ; White_Space    # Zs    MEDIUM MATHEMATICAL SPACE
3000   　  ; White_Space    # Zs    IDEOGRAPHIC SPACE

Note that I used the notations TAB, LF and CR, standing for the three characters \t, \n and \r, instead of the chars themselves

So, in order to get the number of Non_Space strings, we should, normally, use the simple regex \S+. However, it does not give the right number. Indeed, when several characters, with code-point over the BMP, are consecutive, they are not seen as a global Non_Space string but as individual characters :-((

You may test my statement with this string, composed of four consecutive emoji chars 👨👩👦👧. The regex \S+ returns four Non_Space strings, whereas I would have expected only one string !

Consequently, I verified that, when the number of four bytes chars is > 0, the suitable regex to count all the Non_Space strings of a file, whatever their Unicode code-point, is rather the regex ((?!\s).[\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}]?)+ ( longer, I agree but exact ! )

So, I would like to propose a new layout of an summary feature, which should be more informative. It contains a list of regexes which allow you to count different subsets of characters from the current file contents. Of course, tick the Wrap around option, in the Find dialog and click on the Count button for tests !

IMPORTANT : In the list below, any text, before the colon character of each line, is the name which should be displayed in the new Summary dialog !

Here is the updated version of my previous posts regarding the present N++ Summary feature ( View > Summary... ). And I must say that numerous things are still weird !

For tests, I used various files as well as my Total_Chars.txt file, written with the 4 N++ Unicode encodings and also an ANSI file, containing the 256 characters of the Windows-1252 encoding :

  • ANSI
  • UTF-8
  • UTF-8-BOM
  • UTF-16 BE BOM
  • UTF-16 LE BOM

To my mind, there are 3 major problems and some minor points :

  • The first and worse problem is the fact that, when an UTF-8[-BOM] file, containing various Unicode chars ( of the BMP only : this point is important ! ) is copied in an UCS-2 BE BOM or UCS-2 LE BOM encoded file, some results, given by the Summary feature for these new files, are totally wrong :

    • The characters( without line endings ) value seems to be the number of bytes used in the corresponding UTF-8[-BOM] file

    • The Document length value seems to be the document length of the corresponding UTF-8[-BOM] file and is also displayed, unfortunately, in the status bar !!

  • The second problem is that the definition of a word char, by the Summary feature is definitively NOT the same of the definition of the regex \w, as explained further on !

  • Thus, the third problem is that the given number of words is totally inaccurate ! And, anyway, the number of words, although well enough defined for an English / American text, is rather a vague notion, for a lot of texts written in other languages, especially Asiatic ones ! ( See further on )

  • Some minor things :

    • The number of lines given is, most of the time, increased by one unit

    • Presently, the Summary feature displays the document length in the Notepad++ buffer. I think it would be good to display, as well, the actual document length saved on disk. Incidentally, for just saved documents, it would give, by difference, the length of the possible Byte Order Mark, if its size wouldn’t be explicitly displayed !

    • For any encoded file, a decomposition, giving the number of chars coded with 1, 2, 3 and 4 bytes would be welcome !

So, in brief, in the present Summary window :

  • The Characters (without line endings): number is wrong for the UTF-16 BE BOM or UTF-16 LE BOM encodings

  • The Words number is totally wrong, given the regex definition of a word character, whatever the encoding used

  • The Lines: number is wrong, by one unit, if a line-break ends the last line of current file, in any encoding

  • The Document length value, in N++ buffer, is wrong for the UTF-16 BE BOM or UTF-16 LE BOM encodings, as well as the Length: indication in the status bar

To begin with, let’s me develop the… second bug ! After numerous tests, I determined that, in the present View > Summary... feature, the characters, considered a word character, are :

  • The C0 control characters, except for the Tabulation ( \x{0009} ) and the two EOL ( \x{000a} and \x{000d} ), so the regex (?![\t\r\n])[\x00-\x1F]

  • The number sign #

  • The 10 digits, so the regex [0-9] :

  • The 26 uppercase and lowercase letters, so the regex (?i)[A-Z]

  • The low line character _

  • All the characters, of the Basic Multilingual Plane ( BMP ), with code-point over \x{007E}, so the regex (?![\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}])[\x{007F}-\x{FFFF}] for a Unicode encoded file or [\x7F-\xFF] for an ANSI encoded file

  • All the characters, over the Basic Multilingual Plane, so the regex (?-s).[\x{D800}-\x{DFFF}] for an Unicode encoded file, only

To simulate the present Words: number ( which is erroneous ! ), given by the summary feature, whatever the file encoding, simply use the regex below :

[^\t\n\r\x20!"$%&'()*+,\-./:;<=>?@\x5B\x5C\x5D^\x60{|}~]+

and click on the Count button of the Find dialog, with the Wrap around option ticked

Obviously, this is not exact as a single word character is matched with the \w regex, which is the class [\u\l\d_], where \u, \l and \d represents any Unicode uppercase, lowercase and digit char or a related char, so, finally, much more than the simple [A-Za-z0-9] set !

But , worse, it’s the notion of word which is practically, not consistent, most of the time ! Indeed, for instance, if we consider the French expression l'école ( the school ), the regex \w+ would return 2 words, which is correct as this expression can be mentally decomposed as la école. However, this regex would wrongly say the that the single word aujourd'hui ( today ) is a two-words expression. Of course, you could change the regex as [\w']+ which would return 1 word, but, this time, the expression l'école would wrongly be considered as a one-word string !

In addition, what can be said about languages that do not use the Space character or where the use of the Space is discretionary ? Then, counting of words is impossible or rather non-significant ! This is developed in this Martin Haspelmath’s article, below :

https://zenodo.org/record/225844/files/WordSegmentationFL.pdf

At end of section 5, it is said : … On such a view, the claim that “all languages have words” (Radford et al. 1999: 145) would be interpretable only in the weaker sense that "all languages have a unit which falls between the minimal sign and the phrase” …

And : … The basic problem remains the same: The units are defined in a language-specific way and cannot be equated across languages, and there is no reason to give special status to a unit called ‘word’. …

At beginning of section, 7 : … Linguists have no good basis for identifying words across languages …

And in the conclusion, section 10 : … I conclude, from the arguments presented in this article, that there is no definition of ‘word’ that can be applied to any language and that would yield consistent results …

Now, the Unicode definition of a word character is :

\p{gc=Alphabetic} | \p{gc=Mark} | \p{gc=Decimal_Number} | \p{gc=Connector_Punctuation} | \p{Join-Control}

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5555613/does-w-match-all-alphanumeric-characters-defined-in-the-unicode-standard

https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Simple_Word_Boundaries

So, in theory, the word_character class should include :

  • All values of the derived category Alphabetic ( = alpha = \p{alphabetic} ) so 132,875 chars, from the DerivedCoreProperties.txt file, which can be decomposed into :

    • Uppercase_Letter (Lu) + Lowercase_Letter (Ll) + Titlecase_Letter (Lt) + Modifier_Letter (Lm) + Other_Letter (Lo) + Letter_Number (Nl) + Other_Alphabetic, so the characters sum 1,791 + 2,155 + 31 + 260 + 127,004 + 236 + 1,398

    • Note : The last property Other_Alphabetic, from the Prop_list.txt file, contains some, but not all, characters from the 3 General_Categories Spacing_Mark ( Mc ), Nonspacing_Mark ( Mn ) and Other_Symbol ( So ), so the characters sum 417 + 851 + 130

  • All values with General_Category = Decimal_Number, from the DerivedGeneralCategory.txt file, so 650 characters

    ( These are characters, with defined values in the three fields 6, 7 and 8 of the UnicodeData.txt file

  • All values with General_Category = Connector_Punctuation, from the DerivedGeneralCategory.txt file, so 10 characters

  • All values with the binary Property Join_Control, from the PropList.txt file, so 2 characters

So, if we include all Unicode languages, even historical ones :

=> Total number of Unicode word characters = 132,875 + 650 + 10 + 2 = 133,537 characters, with version UNICODE 13.0.0 !!

If someone did click on the links to the Unicode Consortium, above, one understood, very quickly, that word characters and word boundaries notions are a real nightmare !

Even if we restrict the definition of word chars to Unicode living scripts, forgetting all the historical scripts not in use, and also leaving aside all scripts which do not use the space char to, systematically, delimit words, we still have a list of about 21,000 characters which should be considered as word character ! I tried to build up such a list, with the help of these sites :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Writing_systems_without_word_boundaries

https://linguistlist.org/issues/6/6-1302/

https://unicode-org.github.io/cldr-staging/charts/37/supplemental/scripts_and_languages.html

https://scriptsource.org/cms/scripts/page.php?item_id=script_overview

https://r12a.github.io/scripts/featurelist/

And I ended up with this list of 46 living scripts which always use a Space character between words :
