(...) Me too -- in a big way -- it's so clean. If the two most vital applications (LEdit and LDLITE) do support subdirectories, then IMHO the win is so big that it's hard not to justify using subdirectories, even if it breaks a few things for a (...)

(...) I did some testing. LDLite functions fine with subdirs in MPD filenames (ex: 0 FILE foo\bar\test.dat works fine, as long as any references to that file are 1 ... foo\bar\test.dat LDraw works fine with subdirs, as we already knew.

(...) etc. I really like the idea of using subdirectories. It will keep the \models directory uncluttered and be easy to understand. Now you still have to deal subassemblies in the directory system.

(...) Unzipping or splitting an MPD should create the directories correctly if they don't already exist (I hope). We should check if splitting an MPD with the current software does that. --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Could someone or a couple people work on a comprehensive LDraw, LEdit, LDAO, etc.. glossary for use on ldraw.org?

(...) Ok, can a model larger than 8.3 be *viewed* in LEdit? I'm not talking about editing, but just viewing. Try opening a file you have named bigger than 8.3 in LEdit and see what happens.
