+======Synopsis:======
+$count(<string> <text>)
+======Technical:======
+The <string> argument is a [[what is a word|dword]] which is unlike most
+other functions.
+This function counts how many times <string> appears in the text specified
+by <text>, possibly overlapping.
+======Practical:======
+The uses for a function like this are unlimited.  One may be to count how
+many times a person's nick appears in a public message, for logging
+purposes.
+======Returns:======
+number of times <string> is found in <text>
+======Examples:======
+<file>
+$count(. one.two.three)          returns 2
+$count(zz zzzz)                  returns 3
+</file>
