I've had several people ask me about the CMDLINE meta-statement.
Shouldn't this meta-statement be covered in the FAQ for the Parts Tracker?
> > 0 CMDLINE [LDraw run-time command(s)]
The CMDLINE meta-statement is a way of permitting the author to *document*
certain run-time commands which can be considered as "default" (i.e., required)
for the part in question.
For example:
Most minifig faces are printed on yellow minifig heads. Therefore, it would be
appropriate for such a DAT file to have the meta-statement:
> > 0 CMDLINE -c14
Note that the "-c14" is the run-time command to tell LDraw that the file in
question is to be rendered with the "base" color of Yellow (color-14).
Note, also, that most rendering programs do *not* execute this meta-statement.
As stated previously, this is a (formalized) comment.
Hope this helps! ;-)
