I have looked at LDraw.org and found, that over 500 people has downloaded by that link. So it should be also some more. At present I want to know 1) Are you satisfied with this program? 2) Or do you want it faster? I have some good ideas for that (...) (17 years ago, 4-Sep-07, to lugnet.cad)

Please do not use DATHeader on files that exceed 64k because they will be cut at 64k. I will investigate that problem later. I fixed the problem that I had by mirrored subfiles. cu mikeheide (17 years ago, 2-Sep-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad)
