Thanks very much! My constructive criticisms: (1) The edge lines don't stand out well enough for these colors: Teal - 3 Brown - 6 Turquoise - 11 Purple - 22 and several other colors could also be improved by more contrastive edge lines. (2) The dark (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general)

(...) I liked the keyword feature. But it's really a bunch of already-run searches - what's the use of that? Just use the search box. I had to outsmart it, though, to get it to list all parts. I used a q=* switch. But I think that's the point, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.pun)

You forgot to cross-post to lugnet.off-topic.pun. :) Thanks for kudos. I think there's still room for improvement in Partsref, but I'm very happy with how this version turned out. But I couldn't have done it without Todd's (and I somewhat suspect, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.pun)
