=item count_therbligs

  $count = count_therbligs($message, $case_flag);

  $count = $obj->count_therbligs($message, $case_flag);

Returns the number of "therbligs" (keystrokes) used to generate the
message.  A therblig is either a keystroke, or the pause when one has
to wait in order to enter multiple letters from the same key (such as
with the word "high").

The default number of therbligs for waiting in the same key is
C<1>. There is no way to change that value for this version.

When C<$case_flag> is true, the number of therbligs includes
keystrokes to toggle the shift key.  It assumes that the first letter
of the message or a sentence is capitalized.  (If C<$case_flag> is
unspecified, it is assumed to be false.)
