  ldglite 0.9.1 (now with better LEdit emulation)
 
Hmmm, I didn't get much feedback on the 0.9.0 version of ldglite. No problem, I found enough to work on myself and the result is ldglite version 0.9.1. For this release I tried to make the LEdit emulation more accurate. I also attempted to tweak the (...) (23 years ago, 1-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.announce)

  Pontoon Elements, anyone?
 
Hello. Does anyone know if small pontoon-type elements were ever made for LCAD? I'm referring to small-sized ones capable of supporting an airboat or sea plane. James J. (23 years ago, 31-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
