Ah, that's good to hear.

Someone mentioned getopt and everyone seemed to like it but me, because
I'd already started working with the original meta-command syntax.
Did that getopt syntax stuff ever go anywhere, or was that just a red
herring?

I don't like the getopt format because it is so different than
standard issue meta-commands.

Waitaminute!!  That's what I said a year ago, but you appeared to
get suckered in by the getopt proposal.  Oh well.

Anyhow, I suppose I could just check the changes into CVS and see if
anyone notices. ;^)

Well, I have to get hooked in and put in a few of my changes as well.

Another thing I'd like to do is stop hard coding constraints and
synthesis parts into LSynth (at least for band synthesis), and move
those controls externally to a file.

Defining part/radius/orientation for bands should be easy.  Defining
cross sections and end parts for hoses should be easy too.

You should consider using ldraw.ini for this on Windows.  Then it can
use the portable version of getprivateprofilestring().  Or were you
thinking of passing a config filename to lsynthcp on the command line,
or maybe just a DAT file with a bunch of meta commands?  ldconfig.ldr?
