Together with the POV substitution string I also have other data like the BoundingBox of the primitive, which is used e.g. in the automatic camera positioning. I think it is troublesome to have this kind of (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

| (...) That is wrong? Gee, I had no idea. I've used lines like that a lot, because I've seen them used in other part files, and they seemed to be more elegant than "1 16 x y z 10 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 10 4-4disc.dat" when the primitive is flat in y-direction (...)

Since we would have to go through and "fix" any parts which put a 1 in the yy column, (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)
