With the latest version [v1.5] by default with 'Yes' you get the brief 'report' on-screen [or with 'No' just does it with no reporting]; but if you select the third option at the end of the dropdown list - 'Log' - then as well as the on-screen 'report' a detailed file named 'ModelName_PurgeLog.txt' is made with the model, listing all of the changes that it has made... This log-file opens automatically on completion [at least it does on a PC - but probably not on MAC ? (untested)]. Note that if you haven't saved the 'new' SKP then this 'log' goes into the 'current working directory' with the prefix 'Untitled_'... Its changes are one-step undo-able...

I don't understand you completely.
Do you know how to install plugins ?
Download the PurgeAll.rb file from here http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=82559#p82559
and put it into the Sketchup Plugins folder.
When you restart Sketchup it should load a new item in the Plugins Menu ' Purge Unused...'.
It does not call or load 'extensions.rb' at all - but it does require 'sketchup.rb' which in turn might do this...
The following files MUST be in the 'Tools' folder [there might also be other files depending on what you have installed] - if there are copies or older files in the 'Plugins' folder it will cause problems - some old rogue zipped sets of files mistakenly included some files which get put in the wrong place.
Sketchup automatically makes these 'system' files in ' Tools', older ones mistakenly located in Plugins can load before these and then it can break Sketchup.

sketchup.rb extensions.rb dynamiccomponents.rb langhandler.rb sandboxtools.rb shadowstringsfix.rb SolarNorth.rb

*Yo no te entiendo perfectamente.
¿Sabe usted cómo instalar plugins?
Descargue el archivo desde aquí PurgeAll.rb http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=82559#p82559
y ponerlo en la carpeta Plugins de SketchUp.
Al reiniciar SketchUp que se debe cargar un nuevo elemento en el menú de plugins " Purge Unused..." [Purgar no usados].
No llamar o cargar 'extensions.rb' en absoluto - pero que requiere 'sketchup.rb', que a su vez podría hacer esto ...
Los siguientes archivos DEBEN ESTAR en la carpeta ' Tools' [Herramientas] [también podría haber otros archivos en función de lo que usted ha instalado] - si hay copias de edad o más archivos en la carpeta ' Plugins' puede causar problemas - algunos juegos antiguos rebeldes de cremallera archivos por error incluyen esos archivos que se ponen en el lugar equivocado.
Sketchup realiza automáticamente los archivos de estos "sistemas" en ' Tools' [Herramientas], los más viejos por error en los plugins localizados puede cargar antes de que éstas y, a continuación se puede romper Sketchup.

If you have permissions to add files to your Plugins folder...
Properties > Security > Edit... FULL for all listed...
And you have indeed installed it properly...
When you restart SketchUp the tool should now appear appear in the Plugins menu - there is no 'button' unless you have a 'doctored' version that adds a toolbar...

If you have v2013 why not use the Preferences > Extensions > Install... button to install any RBZ format plugin downloaded from the SketchUcation PluginStore...
http://sketchucation.com/resources/pluginstore?pln=PurgeAll
http://sketchucation.com/resources/pluginstore
Or why not get/use the SketchUcation Plugin Store toolset and then you can AutoInstall plugins from within SketchUp automatically.

Now there's no need to mess on manually installing plugins - provided that you have FULL permission to the Plugins folder

There's a new version available from the PluginStore.
It contains some 'future-proofing'.
The log-report format is also improved.
It is now ready for the next generation of SketchUcationTools etc...

Suggestion: to really purge a file to its bare minimum, maybe add an option to remove attributes (set by some plugins), ifc info etc?

TIG

I was thinking about offering to delete the IFC stuff as that can bloat a file and slow it down.
However some other 'attributes' do add usefulness - like DCs... - which should endure - how do we decide what to keep ?

Good point. Maybe make a combo box with several options for cleaning the attributes: remove all, preserve @ components, ...

No need to make the plugin more complex. Just make a keyboard shortcut for it.
