More Die Roller functionality?

I hope that I am not being obtuse, but I play Shadowrun, and occasionally I don't want the players at the table to know if I'm rolling something (Perception checks, etc) so I use an online die roller. If I could just use the one included here, it would be great, but it doesn't have a way to separate the rolls. I'd just like an option to NOT total the dice and list them in numerical order after rolling say 6d6. I am looking for how many 4's 5's and 6's come up rather than a total of all the dice.

Not a big issue, I can still use it, but it takes a few seconds more - and sometimes that's a lifetime to an impatient player.

I'm sure other systems could use the same functionality.

    The online dice roller offered by WOTC totals everything, but also offers a dice by dice breakdown in the window to the right. It also has other nifty features like allowing you to enter cusom dice numbers like a d3, d27 or whatever. That's the one I use.

    I agree, that's the one I use as well, gnunn. They also have a zip file you can download if you want to use it offline. "Link":http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/dnd/20040517a

    For Shadowrun dice..or any rolling system when you're looking for 50/50 odds, just do Xd2-X.

    That way, the total is the number of hits (that's the SR term, right?) you get on the roll.
