Didn't mean to cause nightmares :)

But if your program is doing 'special' stuff for those kinds of folders, does it
handle use of relative folders in models etc correctly?

Cause you could supply a model e.g. d:\mystuff\coolCar.dat  and include a
special non standard part or whatever along with the main model. e.g. 999999.dat
That dat could use (also supplied) s\ parts. So you'll end up with:

d:\mystuff\coolCar.dat
d:\mystuff\999999.dat
d:\mystuff\s\someSubPart.dat

whould your software find the someSubPart.dat or will it be looking in <ldraw
location>\parts\s\ ??

Cause it 'should' handle above example correctly in respect to the standard as
far i understand it.
