Hope this hasn't been posted previously, if so can someone direct me to it.
Can a custom column be made to give you the file name character count (with or without the file extension)?

[/size]It's return value is like this: <length of name with ext>/<length of name without ext>
If you don't want it to apply to folders, then select "Files" as the coulmns itemtype.
Also in this case, the script may be highly simplified.
