There are approx. 95% and more Windows users for LDraw and the remaining 5% or less are Linux and Apple users. So which direction you would go to satisfy the (...)

| | | | (...) Since some popular LDraw programs are available for the Mac these days - LDView, LPub, L3Lab, and of course Bricksmith - I think it's only reasonable to provide parts updates in a format readily accessible to Mac users. Happily, the (URL) (...) (16 years ago, 31-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
