I could NEVER expect a so "fast-in-make" and "match-to-my-desire" script! 
You can't imagine how many hour I can earn by this script... Much, much thanks to TIG and to DidierBur!
This script-making-story has interested me in Ruby. It is difficult to learn? Because I had 20 years old a good experience in Autolisp (programming language for Autocad).
And, abusing of you time and kindness, are there any Ruby's manual-tutorial? 
Another thanks to everybody!

I'm an Italian architect, helped by his son (that is writing this answer!)
hi
sorry bu i not understand "You have come up with the N/S?E/W etc orientation testing I was expecting [I AM ahead of you 
]

Yesssssssssss, it work.
For surface in mq is ok but with two decimal like this "mq. 1234,56"
For orientation i have thought about this scheme: the value x y understood in the red quadrant brings value in "NE" , the value x y understood in the yellow quadrant brings value in "N" etc etc, but i don't know the language ruby and I am not able to resolve the problem.
Can you help me yet again ?
Thanks

hi,
with a little range of degree of error, and with face , no component or group.
Thanks
Hi, i am italian user of SU rel 7.
Sorry for my bad bad english.
It's possible to generate a report with the surface of faces ?
Divided with orientation (N NE NW E W S SE SW) and with material ?
example
"face" "NE" "mq.0,00" "material"
Thanks for all those that will answer

hi,
autocad work but manually not automatic.
The request work is an automatic subtraction of face from actual and project.
