LEdit is still my prefered LDraw editing platform, because I've never

Ah Ha!  I knew it!  When I suggested you were probably "still running
the original LEDIT program on some ancient 386 ... stashed in an attic
somewhere", you only denied the 386 part.  You *are* still running LEDIT
in somebody's attic!

So I know I've asked this before, but I'm old and I forgot the answer,
and google can't seem to find it for me either.  Why haven't you moved
into this century (albeit the previous decade) and tried ldglite?  If you
rename it to ledit.exe or ldgledit.exe it's supposed to behave just like
LEDIT, only in a window, and at a higher resolution so you can see more
of your stuff.  Heck, at this point you can switch to ldglite and still
be obsolete.  Why not give it a try, or (if you already did) give it
another try now that you've finally abandoned that crusty old 386.

If somebody were actually using it for something (even creating evil
clone bricks) I might find the motivation to start working on it again...

Enjoy,
