FullWrite Professional provides keystroke, character, word, line, and
paragraph counts (Get Info on the File Menu).  In fact we had to
remove this feature from the German version because the keystroke
counts, along with the elapsed time record, could be used to 
monitor productivity in some fashion which is against German law.

A "readability" index is also computed, based on sentence and word
length.
