  Re: LDView 3.1 on Mac OS X!
 
(...) Well the other thing to consider is that with the adoption of the standard header on DAT files, there really is no *need* to store unofficial files in a different sub-directory, because programs will be able to tell which files are unofficial (...)

  Re: LDView 3.2 on Mac OS X with Qt 3.3.7 status report
 
I've tried a little (without success) to get QT4 to build as a universal static library. If I get that working, I'll see if I can't work out the QT4-specific bugs. While the border and extra space on top aren't good in the QT4 version, the overall (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Unofficial directory (with non-standard name lenght)? (Was: LDView 3.1 on Mac OS X!)
 
(...) First of all, I agree that we should avoid using space in filenames for all official stuff. It's just too problematic. However, that's not a reason to forbid the use of long filenames in general. The thing is, any program that doesn't support (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Request for votes in LDraw polls
 
Hi all, As some of you know (and perhaps some do not) LDraw conducts various polls, both for official reasons (such as elections and Constitutional changes) and for contests (such as model of the month, part of the month etc.). Unfortunately the (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.announce) ! 
 
  Testing long filenames was Re: Unofficial directory (with non-standard name lenght)?
 
(...) And sorry to reply to myself... Could people using older operating systems test this? I'm happy to maintain the status quo if there are problems but if no-one finds problems then I think we make the majority suffer for something that isn't (...)

  Re: Unofficial directory (with non-standard name lenght)? (Was: LDView 3.1 on Mac OS X!)
 
(...) I'm not sure about 98 and its ilk but I've never had any problems with long filenames in XP for l3p (and possible other command lines although I can't remember any off hand). I would certainly recommend against using spaces in filenames as (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Re: LDView 3.2 on Mac OS X with Qt 3.3.7 status report
 
(...) I think I forgot to mention that using Qt 3 also restored "polling" mode, which broke with Qt 4. Jim (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Unofficial directory (with non-standard name lenght)? (Was: LDView 3.1 on Mac OS X!)
 
(...) It it really so? We still use renderers and utilities that have command line inputs, and I don't know but I have a strong feeling that long names may cause problems like "Unofficial" turs into "Unoffi~1" followed by path not found errors. And (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

  LDView 3.2 on Mac OS X with Qt 3.3.7 status report
 
Just an update on my LDView tinkering. I got Qt 3.3.7 compiled and used it to rebuild the current LDView 3.2 code. As predicted in the other LDView thread, using Qt 3.3.7 instead of Qt 4.2.2 resolved some of the issues I'd observed, most notably the (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

I realize that fewer and fewer programs and utils are made in DOS evironments, maybe I'm the only to still make quick 'n' dirty programs in (...)
