If there is a universally working* META-command system for creating minifigs, be
it LDAO's, LDDPMINIFIGGEN or any other, I'd like to push for it to be more or
less an official standard. As I haven't been that engaged in this side of LCad,
I am anything but up-to-date on the status. For me, it has been like reinventing
the wheel each time I wnat to LDraw a minifig.
*) With universally working, I don't mean supported by every LCad program, but
working for every normal use of minifigs, like with or without neckware.
