Well, these particular parts weren't majorly challenging. The nice

There are a bunch of usability issues (like the Editor shouldn't
deselect the selection after performing an action!), but not too many
out-and-out bugs.

| (...) Steve, a nice addition would be an alt-a command to turn a part 90 deg. on its y-axis, just like the "a" command in Ldraw. Also, I've noticed that alt-x/y/z lets me rotate a part, but alt-s (or alt-c) doesn't work for setting the center of (...) (25 years ago, 9-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)
