Hi Kevin,
Finally got around to downloading this version and just discovered that the
meta-command LPUB PACK SUBS doesn't seem to do anything. The new version seems
to wipe the _bom.ldr file after use too so I can't even repack with my own
software.
Also, I'm getting an error:
submodel_bill_of_materials: Failed to open file
C:\ldraw\LDRAW\MODELS\TheGhan\GhanEngine.ldr for reading
when I try to generate the BOM/sub-BOM for an MPD in that directory. I tried
putting the file there but that didn't seem to fix the problem.
Apologies if the latter is an old error but I couldn't find it.
Yours,
Tim
