Word Totals Counting?

[Atom]

Is there any way to take the contents of a rich edit and list every word and get the amount of times each was used?

So for example if the text was 'it was the best in the world' you would get -

it = 1
was = 1
the = 2
best = 1

etc, i can count the total words no problem but im not sure how to do this right now. Any extensions that do this or ideas/examples how to do it? thanks

You could put all the words in an array or a list and loop through it. On each word, put it in a 2-dimentional array and set one value to the word, and another value to the word count.

How do you send each word to a list dynamically though? I was originally thinking it could be done like that but im not sure how to send each word to a list in realtime. So if you removed words in the middle of the rich edit it removes in the right list positions also.

Thats the problem really because it needs to be adjustable text always as it's not a static word list and will change. If it were words i always would know it would be easy enough but im not sure how to do a updating version yet.
