Hi,

This is a much better version of the little add-on I've written:

Bill-of-materials (org-bom.el)

I've used this for over 6 months now, daily.
If you ever need to quickly make a quote for a client, or simply
make easy to-buy list, this should help you.

You can find the code here: http://pastebin.com/K11QpQ6Q

The tutorial is included with it, but here is an eye-friendly version:

Finally, just to tease you, this is a table generated from various
data gathered inside a buffer:

Enjoy!
