(...) I don't know where this ldraw folder came from. I thought it was the linux parts, but maybe I am wrong. Maybe it was the linux parts expanded on Mac OS X... I don't know. I recently rounded up all of my ldraw folders that I have collected over (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

|

OK, so I finally was able to do some tests on what I posted about earlier (ldglite on Mac OS 9 crashing with lowercase files). Well, lower case isn't why it was crashing. I could download the linux files onto 2 different Macs with OS 9.2.2 and OS (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

| | Mac OS X - LdGLite Launcher .8

I have thrown together a AppleScript Studio application that functions as a launcher for ldglite. It makes it fairly easy IMHO. (I was getting sick of trying to launch ldglite all the time) Those with Mac OS X, check it out at: (URL) (24 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

Dietmar Planitzer has a release 4 of his GLUT for Mac OS X. Menus are not any longer on the menu bar, they are contextual menus on the individual windows. Lots of other changes were described - this guy is really keen on GLUT. The URL is still: (...) (24 years ago, 31-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) I would strongly suspect that the ANSI C functions that you are calling are internally using the Mac (HFS) File System. I don't see how it could do otherwise.

What is the problem with case exactly on macLDGLite? The linux parts distribution has different case directory names and ldglite has a problem with that? Is it just the directory names that are trouble? LDRAW has the same notion of case as DOS, (...) (24 years ago, 30-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

As case sensitivity, I haven't changed the actual parser code, so if the directory names are in upper case then it should work. However I must confess I haven't tried using the linux ldraw primitives, so to redress this, I have just downloaded the (...) (24 years ago, 30-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) From my experience, I think thats correct. Whatever case you create something as is the actual case that it is stored as. But, the ability to open a file is 'case insensitive'. Therefore, while it does preserve case when creating a file, you (...) (24 years ago, 30-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) I have to admit, I'm stumped on this one. According to several sources on the internet, the Mac HFS filesystem is case preserving for writing, but case insensitive for lookups.
