What subfiles, in your opinion, would need the tilde ("~")
as the first character?  I'm thinking that any subfile created
for dithered color usage, and is used only for that one file,
would qualify.  But I could be wrong...

The tilde is not needed for any subparts (subpart=file in parts\s\).
The tilde is used to note part files that do not need to be displayed
in general part listings.

OK.  In that case, what kind of part file would /not/ need to be
displayed (in a listing of general parts)?  I can't think of any
right off the top of my head.

(Also, in light of your above statement, please consider all
tildes removed from the suggested new titles in this post:
"http://news.lugnet.com/cad/dat/parts/?n=3754")

Thanks, again.  ;-)
