Subject: Number of Mitzvoth Applicable Today

I am responding to [Gelb, Vol 24, #32] who inquires about people who
counted the number of mitzvoth we are required to do today.

First the Rambam himself at the end of the Mitzvoth Asay explicitly
lists the number of mitzvoth done by the "average person" nowadays.

Second, I believe the Chafatz Chayiim wrote some type of book for
soldiers dealing with their daily obligations (I honestly forget if it
was written as a shulchan aruch or a sefer mitzvoth or both)

Perhaps some other MJers will have more details.
