Trade skill addons?

There are a bunch of addons to help with trade skills, and I was wondering if people had any preference. I'm mostly interested in something that interfaces with Auctioneer, and gives me the total cost in materials to make an item and the cost of the item at the auction house (e.g. the profit from making that item).

Thanks,

Adam

Auctioneer should already provide this (at least the "Auctioneer Advanced" package)? It may have to be enabled specifically. When I mouse over my enchants for example, it displays the list of mats with their AH data prices, the grand total, and a suggested markup.

Are you sure? I've been using Auctioneer quite a long time, and I've never seen an option that adds to the tradeskill window, nor one that knows what mats are required to make an item.

Auctioneer modifies the tooltips for crafting recipes. For example:

It's not directly in the tradeskill window, no. Although it does mean you can price check recipes linked by other people. -Although it's a little dumb in that inscription window, as it doesn't understand Common Parchment is a vendor item and uses AH data. :-/

I think it might be part of the EnhTooltip/Informant sub-addons of Auctioneer (I use "Auctioneer Advanced" which basically throws all their related addons in which all talk to each other).
