Oops, sorry 'bout that.

Wow, you're working with the horse?  You have my deepest respect!

I think that using one tool or another is mostly a matter of taste.  I
haven't written LDraw-mode to compete with anybody else's tool, but
because I like to work with Emacs.  Your program looks very useful,
and probably fits your way of working better.

So you're suggesting to add the PIPE META commands to the LDraw
format?  I'm probably not the correct person to decide such a
question.  We can see what other people say.
