WordPerfect is also a word processing program, yet when you ask it to count lines, it gives you the option of not counting blank lines. I keep an old version of WordPerfect on my computer just for this feature. I'm a medical transcriptionist and get paid by the line, but blank lines are not counted. When you type as much as 5,000 lines of text per day, in all kinds of formats, having the feature of not counting blank lines is a necessity.
