I have just written a wordcount DA that works with either MacWrite or
TEXT files.  It also has a grep in it that allows '^', '$', '[..]',
'[^..]', '.' and '*' metachars, does normal or -v printing, and also
works on both types of files.  Is there any interest in a posting?
It's about 9K.

It's written in Rascal (the new version).
