Hi all! Once I downloaded LDraw, so I could work with designs when I am at work abroad etc., but failed. It seems to be a DOS based programme, which does not work under windows 2000. I had problems with finding the functions, it works way too fast (...) (20 years ago, 6-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)

Hi all, Just wondering if the new colours (lt bley, dk bley, and bred) have been given numbers for Ldraw? I found Bernd's post (URL) that gives his local definitions, but have these been included in the tools themselves? ROSCO (20 years ago, 7-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad)
