(...) I think that the word slope should be in there, along with the degrees of the slope. Those two slopes would then be "1x2 45 degree end cap slope" and "2x2 45 degree peak slope junction". Although, "half-pyramid" fits the "end cap" best, as (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.general)

Ah, yet another promising database variant! This is great, and fast! I only see one problem with it is it only includes official LDraw elements. Isn't there any way we could make .DAT files for not yet rendered parts, too? Just for database (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
