     (...) The command is 0 SYNTH not 0 LSYNTH. If you change the occurances of LSYNTH to SYNTH the program should work (it work on my WIn XP machine). -Orion (21 years ago, 17-May-03, to lugnet.cad)
    
         Re: Lsynth problem —William M. Leue
     (...) Thanks, silly of me! However, after making this correction, I still get the same behavior.

     <snip> (...) How many times do you have LDraw installed on that computer? LSynth tries to locate the LDraw directory by searching for MKLIST.exe. I need to get better at installation packages.... (...) Kevin (21 years ago, 17-May-03, to lugnet.cad)

I don't know whether this is relevant, but I tried several times to install Lsynth 2 based on Kevin's recommendation, but the installer dies consistently trying to create the file ...\My Documents...LDRAW\PARTS.
