Wow! That is very cool! I'm going to have to find a curved piece in one of my models that needs a pattern and try it out. Thanks! Scott (17 years ago, 7-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) If there is no other tool with that name - take it. But if your tool is for printing code I would suggest also the letter print in the name like LDPrint or better LDCPrint (LDrawCodePrint). cu mikeheide (17 years ago, 6-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I am wrapping up a little utility to pretty-print LDraw code (as a supplement to some things LDDP can do and as a stand-alone tool for other platforms). My working name for it is LDTrim, but I am curious if anyone has better suggestions. In (...) (17 years ago, 6-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Hi Travis! Thanks for the input. I'm yet to fully exploit the meta/header data of the files, I've focused on the winding properties only thus far. This will give me greater cause to look deeper into them! Cheers Shane (17 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Thanks Steve! That's really useful! I too thought that ldraw site would have the directory structure more documented then it is, but clarification is always nice. Cheers Shane (17 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
