I'm having fun with these :-)
I'm in the process of finishing off a Modeless "WordCount". Apart from
the features you'd expect, like a update button that updates the latest
info from the currently active frame, I've also added a label to tell you
the document name of the current statistics.
But the coolest new feature is an auto-update so that the dialog runs in
the background continually updating the latest statistics of the currently
active document.
Very handy for those 1000 word essays :-)
Next is a radio button to select if you want auto-updating and a spin box
to set the speed of the updates. 1 per second works pretty well so far.
Then I guess I should save these as a preference too. I have to work out
how to do these.
Cheers
Martin
