What is this?
This is a tiny package that finds the count of the longest adjacent repeating
substring.
When should I use this?
This package is rather niche.
I use it for serializing markdown ASTs (particularly fenced code and math).
You can use ccount if you need the total count of substrings
occuring in a value.
