My question (you knew I was leading up to this):

Is there a easy way to combine all the dat files into one?

My primary purpose for this is for ease of uploading. So far what I have
been doing is copy & pasting the dat files into a single file, but this will
get rather mouse-cramping when dealing with more than a handful of
sub-models. :/

Get Jacob Sparre Andersen's buildmpd utility (there should be a link to
it from <http://www.ldraw.org/download/software/>).  It's a command line
program, but it will combine all your subfiles in one shot.

Or use MLCad's import functions to add each file to the master.
