Matt, thanks for posting that. I was too busy to get anything out earlier.
In addition, I just wanted to add the following.
Don has gotten ldglite to compile on Mac OS X and I tested it and it works.
The steps to compile it are in Matt's email (the first one of this tread).
Easier instructions will come soon if you don't want to try all of that.
Also, I believe the linux parts file works best.
Get the linux parts files here:
http://www.ldraw.org/reference/linux-ldraw-library.tar.gz
or
http://ldglite.sourceforge.net/linux-ldraw-library.tar.gz
The ldraw folders above have no models. If you want some models, there are
some here (I believe these are Erik Olson's--I am not sure where I got it):
http://firebolt.mlmc.utah.edu/ldglite/LDRAW.zip
Or you can find some models on many sites (I don't have any URLs for ya,
you'll have to look).
Editing is "fully" supported with the -ledit parameter. You can get a list
of key commands at:
http://library.thinkquest.org/20551/keys.html?tqskip1=1&tqtime=0208
It is kinda hard to use, but it is good enough for me for the moment.
After launching ldglite, I think you have to click on the title bar of the
new window, not just the window. I believe all of the key commands work.
For example, "esc" brings up a menu of sorts. Pretty cool.

| I was hoping we could break the ice. I was thinking we could all just post a message to the newsgroup giving a little info about ourselves. It could be as brief as you like, such as "Hi, I use a Mac and program" or something more if you want. This (...) (23 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
