If your Vim has:

you could create a custom mapping:

xnoremap <key> <Cmd>let @+ = wordcount().visual_words<CR>

that you would use like this:

v{motion}<key>

where you:

See :help <Cmd> and :help wordcount().

For me don't work. I have wordcount(), , has('clipboard') === 1 Using neovim 0.9 My key ` let @+ = wordcount().visual_words` Select one word and press C-t, and nothing. – serii Jul 05 '23 at 06:03
