How does %PRODUCTNAME count words? In general, every string of characters between two spaces is a word. Tabs, line breaks, and paragraph breaks are word limits, too. Words with dashes or always visible hyphens, as in plug-in, add-on, user/config, are counted as one word each. The words can be a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters. So the following text counts as four words: abc123 1.23 "$" http://www.example.com.
