Hello,

Can someone make a quick part type count for LDOA OR LDRAW? It would make it
allot easier for me than counting 3000-100,000 bricks by hand. I am working on
a project and making instructions with piece type count. Telling how many of
each type brick will be needed. With the LDraw picture of each piece. Can
anyone help me accomplish this allot quicker than I have been doing? Also
hasn't anyone else needed such a device for their projects?

I am not sure if this is exactly what you need, but LDAO's HTML generator does
figure out how many parts are in a processed model.
And it generates an HTML page with the total of parts, how many of each part in
each color, and a picture of each type/color of part.

I am not sure if it has been changed any, but the last time I had used it, it
counted subfiles as parts.  So if you need an accurate, overall list of parts,
it would be best to start with a fully inlined file with no subparts.

An example:
http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Zone/9500/scorp01.htm
and select the "View Parts List" link.
