(...) I'm not a part author, but the issue resembles 'when to use functions' in programming. Reasons for subfiles i can think of based on programming experience are: - Re-usage of code (e.g. in a different color or different part) - Breaking down (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)

Making sub-parts is a very good method to keep file sizes down when large portions of code can be used twice or more times in the same part or in several parts. But my question is, how small can this code snippet be before it's better to not (...) (14 years ago, 2-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)
