Eh?  I feel left out.  Why does it only mention L3Lab and LDView
When it seems to work just fine for my favorite "user defined"
external program as well?  Actually I'm not sure what the polling
interval does...

LDDP creates a temp LDR file and has the renderer display that.  The polling
interval determines how often LDDP will update the temp LDR file to match edits
(or cursor moves if draw to cursor is turned on).  Of course, the renderer has
to have polling turned on to notice that the temp file changed.  Does LDGLite
poll?  If so, does the LDDP polling work with LDGLite, even though it isn't
listed?

Sort of.  I think I broke something in the ldglite polling code
when I started fiddling with the search path stuff recently.  It
only works when I work on a file in the current directory.  Gotta
fix that.

Also I guess I have to add the -p to the user-defined program
parameters field manually to get ldglite to poll.  Like this.

  "-v3 -l3 -mc -p %0"

It'd be cool if LDDP would do it for me when I check the
"Poll to L3Lab and LDView" selection, and remove the -p when I
uncheck it.  Oh well.
