is there a way to pull up some stats on a patch?

I have a multi-level patch that i've been working on for a long time. Its a monster. Absolutely huge.

I would really like to get an idea of how many objects, connections, etc I have put into the patch collectively... for curiosity's sake more than anything.

I'd say paste your patch in a text editor and see how many lines you get.

I've done that... the only problem, it seems is that each bpatcher/patcher is represented by a single line. this hides the magnitude of the project in my case because the guts of this baby are spread pretty uniformly across many patches.

I think I might just wait until I am finished, and then take full screen grabs of all the patches, and create a full-scale image of the entire project.

You can see the amount of function calls and signals used in the DSP status window.
