Add a Word Count Feature to Tomboy

[ Thanks to Dmitri

“If you use Tomboy as a drafting tool, a word count can
come in handy in many situations. While Tomboy doesn’t offer this
functionality out of the box, you can easily add it using the
Tomboy-Wordcount add-in. Although it’s distributed only as a source
package, compiling it is not particularly complicated. First off,
you have to install two packages: gnome-sharp2 and mono-gmcs . On
Ubuntu, you can do this using the sudo apt-get install gnome-sharp2
mono-gmcs command. Grab the latest version of the add-in from the
project’s Web site, and unpack the downloaded
archive.”
