Sure but you sayed you would like to have a tool with command-line options
(forgetting the fact that I planned to integrate that into my install-tool
for MLCad .. cause this was though to be a trial test) and then you start
the browser ....

Realy I would prefere using a link-library and we make that source-code plus
most used binaries available on ldraw.org ... so everyone willing to use it
can download it and include it into his program.
I mean the idea having java applets for something is not bad, but I don't
like it for a installation tool, it's a bit to complicated for an
installation tool.

(...) OK, we could have a config file, created by the aplication (applet), when there isn't one, which the user could than edit, or even run the applet with parameters, which I believe is posible, but I'm Not sure (haven't worked on Java for 2 years (...)
