The thing is now that my mklist does not create a new parts.lst file. I can
choose between Number of Description. It starts counting x parts found, but
no new file is written. This is the first time this happens.

The version of mklist.exe packaged with the early versions of this download was
not able to cope with long filenames, and running it would not have updated your
parts list. With a fast response from Don Heyse (the author of mklist) the
downloads have been updated to include version 1.6 of mklist.
If you have already downloaded this update, you are strongly encouraged to
re-install it to get the new version of mklist.
Alternatively, you can just download and unzip the new version of mklist from
http://ldglite.sf.net/mklist1_6.zip
By default mklist v1.6 widens the filename column to allow 21.3 filenames, with
the result that the description now extends to column 90. This has been
successfully tested with MLCad, but if you are using other or older
applications, the legacy support options -8, -r and -t (see below) may be
necessary.
-8 Use 8.3 names for compatibility.
-t Truncating descriptions to fit in an 80 char terminal window.
-r Ragged filename column. Size it to fit short filenames.
Many apologies for this oversight.
