(...) Hi Ross, It works! I just built it by hand, so I'll write a simple makefile for it tomorrow. Only issue is that the version of Freetype 2 that comes with OS X doesn't seem to know about FTOrientation, so I just ifdeffed out the few bits that (...)

Man, I just realized that my old (URL) MPD Utility> is still listed on LDraw.org. Frankly, I don't think there's still a need for it, and I wouldn't really trust it to "do the right thing" with any given MPD. It was sort of cobbled together as a (...)

Sure, but as I said, you can't be 100% certain that the contents of the standard LDraw directory are all official and vice versa, so the best way to manage them (in my opinion) is lump them all together, and have a program that helps you (...)
