Yeah, I'm sorry about that. Right after checking it in and pushing it I
went "I'm not sure how much work this is to finish", and then didn't get
as much time to fix it as I wanted before having to drive home. (Since
which a lot of time's been eaten by other things...)

I'm aware of this and working on it, hope to get it cleaned up tonight
or tomorrow. (I'm also adding a -C to do columns because there are
_three_ ways of measuring this stuff and rather than try to come up with
--help text explaining which I've implemented and why I'm just DOING ALL
THREE. Probably adding column count to wc too. But crunch_str() isn't
quite doing what I want it to, and I'm debugging why, and _that's_ the
rathole I went down that's prevented me from checking in the actual
fixes yet. Sorry. My working style is sorta fractal at times...)
