More Info

char-counter

This extention will show you how many characters are before cursor and in total in your whatever documents.

If you select some of your text, it will instead show you how many characters are in your selection.

Features

Your status bar will display the number of characters in your active document.

One more thing that you should know is "enter" will be counted as two characters, and "tab" depends on your configuration of tabs.

Considering mix word-counter and char-counter into one extension in further updates.
