Is there an easy way to count the total occurences of a numbers in a coll?

would yield 3 lists (or potentially another coll with 3 indexed lines)

I've made a patch that works but it's really complex and I'm thinking this should be a relatively simple task.

example: a coll containing the following
0, 0 0 1 1 2 2;
1, 1 0 1 2 1 1;
2, 2 0 2 1;

would yield 3 lists (or potentially another coll with 3 indexed lines)
0  4
1  7
2  5

count-total-occurences-of-a-number-in-a-coll

Here's how I'd approach it. The numbers to count are hard coded into [zl.sub] objects. I'm sure you could make this more general using [zl.thin], for example.

Wow, that's so much clearer and cleaner than I had (counters banging counters, etc. etc.) Thanks!
