Currently (version 5.3.1) Textpad does not count the number of words correctly if "smart" apostrophes are in the text.
For example, won’t counts as 2 words (incorrect) while won't counts as 1 word (correct).
While it is possible to go in and manually add smart-quotes as special word characters -- in every document class and in any files with custom settings -- this is a pain and is not obvious to the user.
See this forum post, for example.
Textpad should ship, handling word count correctly by default.
Textpad should default to counting words correctly.
