| (...) Rosco, Unfortunately, MLCAD's use of WRITE is a really bad example, because MLCAD is mis-using an already standard meta-command. Plus, 0 WRITE statements are not allowed in official parts, so any part authors who create their files in MLCAD (...) (22 years ago, 22-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|
| I don't think of any new meta-commands as polution. Possibly over-population? I've got mixed feelings about the LTrax solution. It is very hard to know which meta-commands will be usable across many applications. Certainly the original LDraw (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| (...) Travis, I could not agree more. I've been tossing around the concepts of an LDraw file format standards body with Tim and others, and IMHO the weakest link in the LDraw file format is that comments and meta-commands use the same record type.

| | Ldraw Viewer 0.5

| Once again it seem I have too much spare time, since I have elevated Ldraw Viewer to development version 0.5. The big change is that you can now rotate parts using the mouse (rather than by dialog box). I have also eliminated a number of bugs (...) (22 years ago, 4-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
