I really like the -q option -- especially when I can catch it in mid-draw so
that it clears the screen just when it starts drawing the line edges.  This
is a nifty effect -- how about an option to draw *just* the line edges?
Use -fw for that.  That's an old ldlite option so it may not be in the
readme.txt file.  I guess I should add a section in the readme file
that covers all the ldlite compatible commandline options.

I've been pounding on ldglite and I think I've gotten the effect I was
thinking of.  I have a screenshot here (warning: 1024x768x32 PNG ahead):

Changes I made:

- line types 3 and 4 render in white
- color 24 renders same color as 16 (to make up for loss of color)

Plus:

- a quickie type-2 and type-5 jitter for a sketchy look :-, (ok, this
wasn't what I was aiming for, but I think it'd be a cool option in addition
to the first two)

All changes so far were in L3View.cpp, mostly a couple new functions and
minor changes to DrawPart() (presumably if this were to make it into the
official version changes would have to happen to the parameters handler).

Just curious -- I saw code similar to DrawPart() in the function
Draw1PartPtr(), but I never reach this code when I run ldglite.  Is this
still live code, and what is it used for?  I'm guessing any changes I make
to DrawPart() would also need to be reflected in Draw1PartPtr().

Cheers,
