Lester,

I would like to include that into MLCad. Adding as a meta command for MLCad
I could support this.
All I would need is some sort of library I can use. Best way would be a dll,
which generates that - or if you do not mind already the source code.
That way it would be added like the other generators in MLCad.

What do you think?

I am developing a building in MLCAD (which I have built). I intend to • including
an interior and may use cut (Gasp!!) baseplates for floors. Since the • parts
library did not include non-standard baseplates (like 22x12) I wrote a • small
program that will generate a rectangular baseplate of any dimensions.

I may have posted about this before but never got around to doning • anything
more.

I would be happy to make the program GPL or public domain or give it to
ldraw.org. How would this happen?. The souece code is "C" (I also ahve a • perl
version). To use it you have to compile it (I am not familiar with • packaging
executables)

Is there any interest in this

One interesting issue is that the program is based on the 16x32 baseplate
authored by James Jessiman) would the program be a deriviative work or the
output?. (I developed the program by taking lines from the DAT file and • using
them as templates for the program.)

By the way this is not a hugh program, its only 218 lines including • comments
