Hi! I'm almost done with a working beta of my latest program: LTrax. It's a program inspired by Track Designer by Matthew Bates, but *much* less advanced. The data files in LTrax are totally text based, and I have tried to make it modular. The (...) (22 years ago, 27-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)

(...) That's pretty much what it does. Right now it creates an LDraw part whose front face contains a whole bunch of small squares, one for each pixel in the image file (except for the edges, those aren't squares).
