Exactly -- my way doesn't count formatting stuff. It's not really that
hard, all I'm doing is taking the .1 off the name so that man will
display it, and then counting everything. And I don't know if you store
your fvwm manpages somewhere other than the default location, but
that would count all the words in all the manpages that I have ;)
