(...) Hi Remi, I got your email today. I don't know why I didn't notice or respond to the previous emails. WYSIWIG LPub (4.0) is moderatly far along. I started on it shortly after returning from Brickfest PDX in Portland. You use the GUI to get the (...) (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) Hi Kevin, I was hoping to hear from you! Yep, I knew you were working on a WYSIWYG LPub - you've mentioned the idea here in the past. I just had no idea how far along you were, or if you had even started. I tried contacting you a handful of (...) (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) I'd be happy to try, but it would require some things: An admin to install xvfb on the server An admin to give me a user account on the server to get it working Possible admin support if other dependencies are missing on the server As a note, (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) Though the error has been fixed I'm still in favour for the switch for the simple fact that LDView is maintained and updated (and that IMHO it's output looks much smarter) but I'm happy to leave the decision to go/no go to Travis since he has (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Well, to be perfectly honest, while I'm pretty confident that LDView can be gotten to work relatively easily (via xvfb) on the LDraw server, I'm not sure whether its performance will be "acceptable". So I think it's only fair to keep the (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Remi, Maybe you didn't know but I am working on a WYSIWYG version of LPub, where there is no manual editing of the LDraw file. So far, almost everything has GUI point and click kind of interface with support for multiple steps per page, and (...) (17 years ago, 2-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
