Re: Counting SLOC in Emacs

[Phillip Lord]

My own m-buffer.el was designed (partly) for this form of 
manipulation. So, it would be something like...

(- 
 (length (m-buffer-match-line (current-buffer)))
 (length (m-buffer-match-empty-line (current-buffer))))

I haven't written a "match-comment" function yet, but will probably add
it now that you mention it. It's easy enough to do.
