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?

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