Why not make official POV-Ray Lego bricks and skip the whole LDraw to POV-Ray conversion? Use the same names, scale, and coordinates and all you need is a small script to convert the LDraw lines into POV- Ray lines using the same translations. Or (...) (19 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) That's great news! It's good to have confirmation about the USB-Serial converter. Also, virually the only reason why I still use Windows occasionally is because of some LEGO apps that won't run on anything else. Have you made a gui, or in what (...)
