  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) You realize you answered your own question? The spacing was inherited from James Jessiman, but it works better to have it there. If some programs/people don't want the spaces, it's easy enough to delete them. It would be more challenging to (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) This would do what you want, unless there was another, similar part, whose name is the same as the master part, except the final dimension included a fractional part, such as "... 2 & 1/3". Not that this is something that commonly collides (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization (was: License revision 1)
 
(...) I agree with that because currently ldraw.org is working as l-cad.org, but l-cad.org will have to focus on other stuff as well. (...) I think it would be better to have the FAQ split, there should be a smaller FAQ with only questions that (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: What Happened to my Primitives?
 
(...) Sorry, bub. You'll have to reinstall ldraw.exe and complete.exe. See (URL) for links. Steve (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization
 
I got my domain, www.kylekeppler.com, from www.namezero.com for free, yes FREE. They do put a huge ole banner on it and you have to have a site host so using it as your main website isn't that great of an idea. You do get unlimited email addresses (...)

  Re: Ldraw.organization
 
(...) See (URL). Stick with www.ldraw.org for all our LCAD needs. "LDraw" should be the primary term for things LEGO CAD-ish, not just a reference to an obsolete program. Steve (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
Yup, that'd be why. ;-) Actually, those one-digit numbers are in reality *two*-digit numbers, prefaced with a zero, but since the zero in question is invisible, you don't see it. ;-) Franklin (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) My impression has been that the extra space preserves alphabetical listing by description, so that Brick 2 x 4 comes before Brick 2 x 10. Another gadfly, Dave! (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization
 
(...) I registered leocad.org at www.domainmonger.com for $17/year. A guy from work registered a domain for $3/year but they add an annoying frame with ads, I don't think it's worth it but if you want I can get the address for you. Leonardo (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  New LeoCAD version
 
Hi, After a long time I decided to pack a new version for you, sorry for the long delay. Several fixes and a few new features, here's the list of changes: · Fixed rotation bug. · Fixed a bug when you insert a piece after a rotated piece wouldn't (...)

  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) I'm guessing it's so they'll sort in human readable format... ie: brick 1 x 1 brick 1 x 2 brick 2 x 10 brick 2 x 12 would be instead (in computer numeralical order (as i like to call it when i complain to dan)) brick 1 x 1 brick 1 x 10 brick 1 (...)

  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) Because of parts like "baseplate 16 x 16" which need two character spaces? Without the padding you'd get ragged listings in monospace font reports. Just a guess, I am just a gadfly here. ++Lar (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
(...) in addition.. something that I've been curious about.. why are the names (descriptions) in this format?: [type] <space> # <space> x <space> <space> # why the second space after the times sign? I've removed it from some of my updated parts, (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  re-name "patterned" parts?...
 
People, I've noticed a minor problem with the current way of naming/titling "petterned" parts. Here's a brief excerpt from PARTS.LST (sorted by Description): 3070.DAT Tile 1 x 1 2555.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Clip 3070DISP.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Computer (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  What Happened to my Primitives?
 
Due to my unrivaled computer savvy, I have managed to delete a few primitives from my p directory. Is there an easy way to download all the primitives but nothing else? I'd download just the ones I need, but I'm not sure which ones I've lost, (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: someone mention my name?...
 
(Notice "follow-up"...) (...) *Sigh*... I *had* to start putting that in my email "sig", 'cuz of the number of in-duh-viduals who, after seeing my name as _Franklin_W._Cain_ (*full* first name, *plus* middle initial), would start off by (...)

  Re: someone mention my name?... (was "Re: Rubber Black")
 
(...) Yeah, you. I included you in because you'd been making comments about Paul's new parts, so you were 'in the vicinity'. BTW, every time I type your name, I have to restrain myself from calling you Frank. That's something I wouldn't have even (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldraw.organization (was: License revision 1)
 
(...) I'm with James on this one. Keep ldraw.org as the domain name. Call the organization LDraw.org. The parts library should be the LDraw Parts Library. Usually when I say/write "LDraw", I'm using the term as shorthand for "the LDraw family of (...) (24 years ago, 18-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
