<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<LINE EATER BEWARE>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I am looking for a program that implements the fog index for a PC.  Source in
any reasonable language would be acceptable or a .exe.

If you have such an animal or are aware of a commercial one that is cheap
please mail me info.  Thanks in advance!!

P.S. For those unfamiliar with a FOG index it is not used to measure the
density of fog in SanFrancisco but instead to measure the complexity level
of written text.  The index is based on the size of words and sentences used
in a document.  Typically the sports page of you local newspaper has a FOG
index of 5 or 6, the business section 11 or 12 and the society section
7 or 8.
