Do the filenames with embedded spaces have quotes around them, or do they just use up all the space to the end of the LDRAW type 1 command line? The reason I ask is because I seem to (...)

| | | | (...) I am currently going through the L3P code and I have now added support for filenames with spaces, both in linetype 1 and in "0 FILE xxx". It now uses the rest of the line as the filename. It also accepts filenames in double-quotes. /Lars (20 years ago, 10-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
