That does not work for me at all. When I select Tools->External Tools->Count 
selected words on the menu, the new option is not there.

Moreover, the whole set of external tools that was already there appears 
*twice*.

I tried again, the new option is not there and the whole set of external tools 
that was already there appears *three times*.

If I try it again, the set of external tools will be there four times, without 
my new option. Until I restart Kate. Then the set of external tools appears 
just once again. But my new option is still not there.

KDE 3.5.0, Slack 10.2
