I have been reading up on Taxonomy all morning now. It is a rather complicated system! I am hoping the end result would be worth all this effort.
I like how Taxonomy Menu creates links on the fly. I do not like how it only adds to navigational menu however. I would much rather add it to a new menu block I have called 'Categories'.
I do some PHP programming so I thought I might be able to hack this in by changing the source, but I couldn't figure out when the link gets added to Navigational menu. Can anyone help me with this?
Another feature I would love to have is to have the number of posts per category displayed in brackets. This is standard practise and can be see on many blogs, including www.vincentrich.com. Does anyone know how this might be achieved? Can I count the number of posts per term and add this to the link?
Any help is greatly apprecaited!

Try category
The category module would be worth your having a look at. It includes category_menu, which will automatically generate menu items and put them in a menu block of your choice. And category_display will generate a TOC for you, with a listing of the number of nodes in each category.
4.7 only.
