I've been kicking this idea around in my head for a while and I'd like to throw it out for discussion. I think the ldraw specification needs to evolve in order to take the great work that James started and make it into the "toy" that everyone really (...) (21 years ago, 26-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad)

No, I'm not getting married. ;-) All of this LDraw standards and organization talk has gotten me thinking...about LDraw.org and it's mission, if you will.

Pretty much, just install wine, then use it to install winzip. use wine to unpack the ldraw parts. run winzip under wine to unzip mlcad run mlcad under wine : ) There are some functions that don't work even with the latest version of Wine, but (...) (22 years ago, 26-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
