I just did a double take : )  YEA, vertex lists !
I was working up to proposing just this sort of addition to the

PS. I was so annoyed by not being able to use vertex lists that I had
"back burned" the LDRAW parts I was working on.  Suddenly I'm inspired
again !

Uh, you might want to recheck that enthusiasm.  Right now, AFAIK (and I
haven't double-checked, so you might want to try it), *only* LDLite will
render all of the LDLite meta-statements.  They definitely are not allowable
in parts submitted for inclusion in the ldraw.org library.

Sorry if I mislead you.

(...) Sorry, one more addition: You can use LDAO to translate any LDL[1] file to straight LDR[2]. So create your parts in the vertex-list-friendly style, then convert them for the rest of the world. :) Steve 1) LDraw files with LDLite language (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-03, to lugnet.cad)

(...) But doesn't LDLite have have a command line switch (-R) to convert the LDLite meta-statements to ordinary LDRAW syntax? So you could submit the converted parts. Don (22 years ago, 1-May-03, to lugnet.cad)
