Hey Huseyin,
···
I am setting with grid-set, and I am wondering, if there is a possibility to count the number of words in the lines (not for each single line, but in average over all lines).
take a look at this: t-wordsperline.mkvi http://pastebin.com/ZjEY1w1p wordsperline.lua http://pastebin.com/YW2R97Cm Usage: \usemodule[wordsperline] \starttext \startlinestats \dorecurse{42}{% \input knuth\par \input ward\par \input tufte\par \input zapf\par } \stoplinestats \stoptext (Works best with the --silent flag!)
That would be helpful to get a perfectly readably book (words per row is one of these readability-measures). That tool could ignore hyphenated words at the end of a line, or count it with 0.5, or whatever.
Hyphenated words are counted as half a word on both lines so each word amounts to exactly one. This does not account for more complex horizontal material like boxes which may contain words. Also the word model is extremely simplistic, so some kinds of punctuation and effects like letter spacing can distort the values. Thus depending on the content of your document the figures might not be accurate; ymmv. (Took a bit longer because initially I planned on placing the stats in the inner and outer margin for each line. Turns out this can’t be done with simple (Lua) means in Context because it would interfere with the margin mechanism. So I had to scrap the first approach and rewrote it to display stats only at the end of the document.)
