Now all I need to do is work out how to determine the number of characters and words I am highlighting (without manually counting them). Is it possible to do that in TextMate at the moment? If I can find that out then I'll buy a license.
You can create a command (menu: Command / Edit Commands…).
Set the Command(s): to “wc”, Standard input to “Selected text” and Standard output to “Show as tooltip”.
If you bind a key to this command, you get the “lines words characters” shown for selected text as a tooltip when you press the key -- it's not as convenient as having the information in the status bar all the time, but I hope it'll make do until I add it.
