(...) I like the idea, I had some head breakers while trying to read LDraw files correctly the first time (especially regarding to reading recursive winding information). But I think, if there was going to be an 'official' LDraw api it should be (...) (16 years ago, 18-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I should be more clear with VB. I am talking about VBExpress that is a NET Framework language. As far as I understand with the NET Framework it is possible to use a DLL that is written in VB also with the other Framework languages. So maybe it (...) (16 years ago, 19-Jun-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
