(...) I've posted a Mac "Service" version, too. You put it in ~/Library/Services/, and then you can process any selected LDraw text by selecting "PreL3P" from the Services submenu of the current application menu. I haven't tested it much. Although (...) (18 years ago, 6-Nov-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Bad form replying to my own post, but I figured out a way to make Track Designer work. I can ctrl click an object to select it (light it up blue). and then I ctrl+arrow to switch to the blinking cursor. It's not perfect, but it's better than (...)

| | Track Designer and Wine/Darwine
|
|
So, I installed Darwine on my MBP, and I was excited, at first, to see that TD.exe worked. I've tried using it a bit, and I've discovered that using the mouse to select things doesn't quite work right. Ctrl Clicking selects multiple objects, and (...)

(...) FWIW I'm pretty sure ldglite saves with a newline (of some sort) after every line. And my opinion is that all programs that *create* ldraw data should do that. It's just common courtesy. After all, we have no control over third party (...) (19 years ago, 20-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

(...) I agree fully on this. A text line is not complete until you have specified the end of it (with EOLN). A LDRAW model consists of text lines, and should IMO end with EOLN. Windows expects 'text' files to end with EOLN, and mistreats them if (...) (19 years ago, 20-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
