(...) modeled it. I decided modeling the actual gears inside was not appropriate for this part, mainly because I didn't want to prise my only one apart, but also because I couldn't think of anyone ever wanting to see them in a model. Having decided (...) (17 years ago, 23-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) For what it's worth, that is the error message that version 1.1 would report given the -help argument. Otherwise, you appear to be using it correctly. Do either of the synonyms "-h" or "--help" work? I can't seem to reproduce the problem. (...) (17 years ago, 22-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Track Designer and Wine/Darwine
 
(...) Bad form replying to my own post, but I figured out a way to make Track Designer work. I can ctrl click an object to select it (light it up blue). and then I ctrl+arrow to switch to the blinking cursor. It's not perfect, but it's better than (...)

  Track Designer and Wine/Darwine
 
So, I installed Darwine on my MBP, and I was excited, at first, to see that TD.exe worked. I've tried using it a bit, and I've discovered that using the mouse to select things doesn't quite work right. Ctrl Clicking selects multiple objects, and (...)

  Re: Thoughts sought on final newlines
 
(...) FWIW I'm pretty sure ldglite saves with a newline (of some sort) after every line. And my opinion is that all programs that *create* ldraw data should do that. It's just common courtesy. After all, we have no control over third party (...) (17 years ago, 20-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

  Re: Thoughts sought on final newlines
 
(...) I agree fully on this. A text line is not complete until you have specified the end of it (with EOLN). A LDRAW model consists of text lines, and should IMO end with EOLN. Windows expects 'text' files to end with EOLN, and mistreats them if (...) (17 years ago, 20-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Thoughts sought on final newlines
