Yes. New users cannot access all features until they reach certain post count thresholds. I've sent a report to a moderator to see if somebody can grant you that ability sooner, since you're obviously not a spambot.

Thanks for taking it under consideration. I know it's not the kind of page counting mechanism you originally envisioned, but it would be nice to have one CLI tool for all our EPUB page numbering tasks.

As far as word counting goes, I would think that you'd count any group of characters preceeded and followed by a space or newline as a word, so that differences in punctuation would not influence the count.

For instance, my text editor's word counter says the preceeding sentence has 37 words, even though it contains commas and a contraction, which matches how I would count the words myself.
