And use the shifted versions to go CCW would be great--shift-A goes -90
around Y, shift-S goes -90 around X, shift-D goes -90 around Z.
LDAO's Modeler allows A/shift-A, but not the others.

The color-list is loaded from ldraw.ini. Open c:\windows\ldraw.ini, search
for [Colors], and start adding lines. The number before the equal sign is
the color-code, the second color is the RGB (in Microsoft style: Blue*65536
+ Green*256 + Red), the color-name goes after the comma. If you don't want
to bother with the RGB, skip it:
47=,Clear
383=13421772,Chrome

Check out minifig.ini, in the LDAO program directory. Just replace the
outdated numbers with the new ones. I'll update the LDAO source code.

Yep, this needs doing. Along with hand-equipment, neckwear, and footwear.
Also, the MFE needs to write out plain DAT files, without the LDLite
extensions.
