Stop it, Michael! You're making me drool on myself! This sounds so good,
I can hardly stand the wait. It's almost as bad as the wait for Christmas!
When do you think you'll be able to incorporate this into an MLCad release?
I don't want to hurry you, but with news of this new feature, I can't be
the only one anxious for your next version of the BEST (IMHO) free CAD
software available.
NOTE: I didn't say LEGO CAD because I use MLCad's excellent primitive
support for lots of non-LEGO projects, too. I should show you some of them
sometime.
To be honest, about the only feature I could really admit to wanting to see
in MLCad that ISN'T there (yet?) is to write .pov files directly from MLCad.
My wife says to hurry up and release the next version because I'm driving
her crazy.
But the most important part of this message is:
Thank you, Michael, for sharing your software with us all.
