    Summary description: A Paragraph statistic package for OpTeX

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Parstat is a package for the OpTeX format that counts glyphs and
    spaces on paragraph lines. From these numbers a statistic is made,
    which is printed into the logfile. ItrCOs intended for checking
    the optimal range of characters and words on paragraph lines
    when designing a new layout.

    No external tools are needed, as all is done in Lua inside the
    TeX engine. Due to this, it integrates perfectly into our
    specific work. We can omit what we donrCOt want in the results.
    ItrCOs also very fast and consumes no extra memory.

    I know itrCOs a small and simple package, but I believe
    that it could be useful for someone else...
