(...) Sorry for posting to my own post. In particular if the "longer file names" cannot have blanks in the names, then there is no problem for LPub or LSynth. 20.3 would require no changes at to LPub or LSynth. Given that sscanf splits things up by (...) (18 years ago, 28-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) OK, that makes a lot more sense. LDView had the same problem with whitespace in filenames until I specifically added support for that. (LDView now gives you a warning when it encounters whitespace in a filename.) --Travis (18 years ago, 28-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) That's a nifty scanf trick. But don't forget, you might still want to (URL) trim leading and trailing whitespace> (tabs and space characters) from the parsed filename (and maybe even surrounding quotes). Don (18 years ago, 29-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) I very strongly support allowing the inclusion of whitespace in LDraw filenames, provided the first character is not whitespace. Bricksmith has always allowed users to do this.

(...) You should also consider stripping trailing whitespace from the end of the filename. I believe MLCad and most of the other programs do this. Whitespace in filenames has been supported by many Ldraw programs for quite a while, but it does not (...) (18 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
