NOT a REGEX question! - Anything like this Text Frequency tool from NT PRO?
-
I love my Notepad++, but there’s one feature that keeps me using another editor (Notetab Pro), and I’d love to find an equivalent here. It’s a text frequency counter.
This is what it does:
Very handy feature when you need stats like this.
Is there any NP++ plugin comes close to this? I’ve found word counters, but not frequency counters.
If not, I can always post this over in the plugin channel and keep fingers crossed. -
Very easy to do with the PythonScript plugin.
If you’re willing to use that (requires a bit of setup, not hard), then I’d volunteer to write the Python code that would be needed to implement functionality. Let us know by posting back.It could also have already been done; I’ll do a search of the forum for it…
But…some of it is probably already at View > Summary… in standard Notepad++ menus.

Here’s one for “word frequency”: https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/20598/show-a-list-of-same-words-before-replacement
It could easily be extended for things like “characters per word”, “different words counted”, really anything you like along these lines.

@Alan-Kilborn Thank you for this offer. I will very likley take you up on it!
First, I need to get it installed, then spend some sit-down time familarizing myself with what it is, what it does, what it can do, how it does it, all that cool stuff. I’ll hit you back when I’m there.
