  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) It's not his .dat file that contains the space character -- it's an actual file on the disk.

  Re: Question about part 4081
 
(...) I don't know if they have different part numbers, but they should be two seperate parts. The old (thin) one had many uses that the current one doesn't. Example: If you put a tile on the clip, it would line up perfectly with the side of the (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: AUTHORS subdirectory?
 
(...) Hmmm... Looks like LEdit handles this just fine as well... No problems here. Is there really any reason to maintain the c:\ldraw\models\etc. structure for use in future tools in the LDraw multiverse? Why not allow models to reside in (...)

  Re: LDAO Suggestion
 
(...) Umm, what's the difference between the appearance of organization and actual organization (assuming one is taking more than a superficial look at what's going on)? Anyway, style folders would actually organize stuff. But not necessarily by (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
A couple thoughts on Repository format: Purpose for .dat repository: If all we are creating is an alternate way of creating instructions, I think it's probably more work than it's worth. The beauty of the LDraw .dat file is that it can be configured (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) Would that be an important feature? I have thought about making the editor and modeler smart enough to strip off the header from files, before displaying the file for editing. But I figured it wouldn't be a big enough deal to bother working (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDraw and 8.3
 
(...) Hmm. LDAO is OK with long file names, except for a few functions (Copy File is one, I think) which explicitly require a valid 8.3 name. LDAO can be configured to translate long paths/names to short versions before shelling to other programs. (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) LDAO is guilty of this. I will have to fix it. :( I wasn't aware the DOS was lean-insensitive. That is cool! :) Steve (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDAO Suggestion
 
(...) I think Jamie was thinking the 'folders' would be like category designators, not physical directories. With style folders, you could create a 'Castles' folder, and a 'Big Models' folder, and put your BIGCASTL.DAT in both folders. Physically, (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: AUTHORS subdirectory?
 
(...) Very good thought. As we discover the possiblities with subdirectories in LDraw, this is a very good idea for us to use. You are implying that people who obtain each author's dat files would put them in the same directory structure, right? (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

I feel it is time to take what we have discussed and bring it all together to reach a final resolution on the filename format. Soon.
