  Re: Standardized Inventory File Format?
 
(...) Hmm, interesting. Are there any XML writers, to convert flat-ASCII to flat-XML? Steve (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: Comprehensive meta-command list
 
(...) Yes, they do. In the example above, the first meta-command, 0 TRANSLATE 20 0 0, would persist until the end of the file. (...) I think I know the answer to this question, but just to be sure: is the 0 INVERT meta-command transparent to (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: CW/CCW, vertex sequence, co-planar, convex, (115kB)
 
(...) I've been thinking the exact opposite -- mirroring should be a valid method for turning subfiles inside-out, and the software doesn't need to do anything special to deal with it (except to notice the inversion, and pass that info on to the (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Interpreting the proposed FACE meta-command
 
(...) Why not recognize it all ways: 0 FACE ACW 0 FACE ANTICLOCKWISE 0 FACE CCW 0 FACE CLOCKWISE 0 FACE COUNTERCLOCKWISE 0 FACE CW 0 FACE DOUBLESIDED 0 FACE DS 0 FACE UNKNOWN This adds a bit to the parser, but not so much. The recommended standard (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Hidden surface removal, and vertex order in part/primitive DAT files
 
(...) No (like Gary said). Two reasons: 1. The 0 FACE directive would be an operative switch, not a global setting. This is convenient, but it is also necessary in some cases. Most importantly, it would allow the 0 FACE meta-statement to appear (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Hidden surface removal, and vertex order in part/primitive DAT files
 
(...) That's what we're doing now--figuring out what the standard should be. Both the function and the syntax. But "standard" is an odd term in this case. In my mind the LDraw standard is defined as "code which is recognized and interpreted by (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Hidden surface removal, and vertex order in part/primitive DAT files
 
(...) Neither do I, but I also know how hard it is to visually check a part for errors. (...) How does that work? Is it based on what the majority of the rays deterimine? I probably need to re-read some of the messages in this thread, to get a (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Price info on classic space
 
Hello, my friend in school has got a lot of lego from his big brother. Now, in that lego, there are several classic space figs and models. I have always wished that he someday could sort together some sets and sell them to me. Now, he has. Today, he (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.space)

  Re: HB for science project?
 
(...) I'm afraid that I'm not qualified to recommend any PICs, but I do know about programming. Basic can be used to implement fairly complex algorithms, but it's not easy to use it for the really tricky data structures, and it would be almost (...)

  Re: Comprehensive meta-command list
 
There will be support added for "0 INCLUDE filename.dat" in the next release, which will insert the text from filename.dat into the current file. This differs from a type 1 line, since the scope stack is not pushed and popped. For example, "0 COLOUR (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Maybe we can meet
 
There are a few Bed & Breakfasts in the Harvard Square, Cambridge area. I'd have to look them up. Might try the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce online for a Bed & Breakfast listing. Sometimes they're only about $45 a night (shared bathroom). There's (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ma, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos, lugnet.people)
