Ah, yes, the missing documentation. Since ldglite is really just
ldlite made portable with some extensions, I've been pretending that
you can get by with the ldglite documentation here:
http://ldlite.sourceforge.net/
and supplementing it with my really poor readme.txt file:
http://ldglite.sourceforge.net/readme.txt
and the LEdit keys documentation here (for LEdit emulation mode):
http://library.thinkquest.org/20551/keys.html
Someday when I finally release the 1.0 version I'll have to write a
single comprehensive document describing ALL the features of ldglite
so that people can actually use it.

I like that idea.

Well, according to the ldlite documentation -Cinteger is supposed to
do it, but apparently since I've never used this feature I didn't
implement it for the L3 parser, so it only works if you remove the
-l3 from the command line. Oops, gotta fix that!
