Speaking about BMP2DAT - I am currently re-writing that program.

My wild plan is to integrate LDS, LDD, and BMP2DAT, so that you can:
* Import chosen parts of a BMP to begin with (if you like),
* Trace the non-90-deg's parts using "LDD technology" - and with bitmap
underneath,
* Include LDS commands,
* Save unfinished work in LDS format, and
* Output as .DAT or .LDS.

Sounds like an awesome idea.  I've tried to do this manually, by BMP2DAT'ing an
image, and then constructing the tri's and quads over top of the raster image,
but it's still a huge pain.

You *could* skip the BMP2DAT aspect, and just display the BMP image as a
background for drawing.  But it would be nice to be able to selectively replace
parts of the BMP2DAT'ed image, and keep other parts.

Sounds good. One further addition might be an ability to
"print" the drawings on studded surfaces like baseplates.

Another great idea.  Especially since this could be extended to project an image
onto any non-planar surface (such as faces and legs).
