(...) well ... you know the saying: "The exception proves the rule!" or was it "There is no exception to the rule that every rule has an exception!" :-D anyway send it over to Ldraw.org and I'll add it the old gallery. w. (17 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I think that's quite reasonable. (...) Indeed, most if not all of my part library files are DOS formated.
