It currently does not ignore sections like your proposal, but I think that would be interesting functionality. Mine does keep a running tally of adds/delete in the mode line. It also lets you set a goal and provides a visual indication when that goal is met -- I believe that this feature may be of interest to you. You can find it at: https://github.com/bnbeckwith/wc-mode Regards, Ben
