All,

I am trying to figure out the fastest way to create images of all the parts in
the LDRAW part library in all the colors. Please help!

I have used the command line:

c:\ldraw\ldlite\ldlite 3001.dat -MS (plus whatever color)

batch file to run them, but I still have to type in a ton of text. Can anyone
help me?

Thanks,
jake
