LDView version 1.9.5 is now available, in both source and binary forms. You
can download either from:
http://home.san.rr.com/tcobbs/LDView/
The main highlight of version 1.9.5 is:
Added support for smooth shaded curves, using the presense of Type 5 lines
as an indicator of a curved surface. Thanks to Martijn Zwaal for the basis
of the algorithm used to implement this feature.
You can take a look at the change history both on the web site and in the
zip download for a list of all of the changes in each version.
Please let me know if you have any comments, questions, feature suggestions,
or bug reports.
