How to interpret the result
LF, CRLF and CR form line boundaries. CRLF contains two characters for character and byte counts but represents one boundary.
Deciding what to do next
Editor wrapping does not add real lines. Prepare intended boundaries before duplicate-line removal.
Feature scope
Count code points, non-whitespace characters, UTF-8 bytes, whitespace-separated words and lines in the browser, not glyphs or every publishing service’s limits.
Frequently asked questions
Does an empty line count?
Empty units created by newlines count; completely empty input is zero.
