I retract my earlier suggestion.
I'd prefer to test for '0 CW-compliant' than '0 CW*' because checking for an
exact string match is usually easier. Not supporting wildcards also
promotes consistency. Consistency is a Good Thing(tm).
Also, what if 'CW' was someone's initials, and they wanted just their
initials to appear in the file? It could mistakenly be considered
clockwise-compliant. :)

My LDraw folder has seven DAT files with '0 CW*', none with '0 CCW*', and 30
with '0 not CW*'.
The seven '0 CW*' files are:
PARTS\973P14.DAT
PARTS\973P15.DAT
PARTS\973P16.DAT
PARTS\973P17.DAT
PARTS\973P18.DAT
PARTS\973P52.DAT
PARTS\578.DAT
Note that 578.DAT contains a suspicious comment :)
I think my part files are current.
