So far, only TransYellow illumination is defined. (in attribute file L46.ldr)
No command line input yet, just an old-fashioned dialog.

Improvemnts to the L46.ldr file are very welcome, as well as more POV attribute
definition .ldr files!

More than PreL3P, DatShine really nedds a better name. Suggestions are welcome!

DatShine v1.02 by Tore Eriksson

DatShine is an LDraw utility program that creates .dat files
for parts with clear colors, like Trans-yellow, Trans-red and so
on. InPOV, they will become illuminated, but not in an LDraw viewer.

DatShine is written to produce dat parts illuminted in POV, but
any attributes like material, texture, pigment, finish and so on
can be manipulated at will by creating an attribute file containing
desired POV code.

The DATHINE META-commands are following:

0 DATSHINE space
Inserts a space character into the output file.

0 DATSHINE lf_on
Switches automatic Linefeed option to ON (Default).

0 DATSHINE lf_off
Switches automatic Linefeed option to OFF.

0 DATSHINE partno
Inserts the Part Number entered by user into the output file.

Example: If partno=3001, these following 5 lines...
0 DATSHINE lf_off 1 46  0 0 0  1 0 0  0 1 0  0 0 1
0 DATSHINE space
0 DATSHINE space
0 DATSHINE partno
0 DATSHINE lf_on .dat
... gives the following output line:
1 46  0 0 0  1 0 0  0 1 0  0 0 1  3001.dat
Linefeed character only after "3001.dat"

DatShine is not harmful to any source files. It opens the source files,
<partno>.dat and <POV-attributes>.ldr in read mode, so any mistakes
will not damage them but only result in a erratic output file.


Have fun!
