Sometimes, we need to know how many items were selected in a multiselect filerequester.
there are examples of while:wend with nextselectedfilename(), but i am requesting countselectedfilenames().
i think the way Fred has the Filerequester setup, the string returned is delimited with commas, which is then accessed by Nextselectedfilename().
Can you just make a command that counts the number of delimited strings returned by the Internal PB function and gives us a long number back?

Re: Count Selected Items with FileRequester
Yes, it would be handy. After all, CountProgramParameters() exists and does
pretty much the same thing as what you're requesting, except for parameters.

I compile using 5.31 (x86) on Win 7 Ultimate (64-bit).
