  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) [...] I guess, since the - does nothing to the original designation and if there is only one model in the instructions the - denotes that. (...) I disagree. We should not offer the 'official' alternate models on the back of the box for (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) Actually, LDraw and LEdit _do_ support directories. You just have to specify the directory in the DAT file. How do you think the s\ directory under parts\ works? Take a look at the last few lines of parts\3634.dat for example. (...) There is (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) Good idea then. But we need to make sure users set up their directories on their machines correctly. If not, those questions will fill up the ldraw.org help desk... (...) Talk yes.. and I can't wait to see it implimented. But talk is still (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) 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)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) 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. The problems (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) Awesome. That's so cool! One question, though: Does it require backslashes or does it allow forward slashes as well? (...) It looks like I have the same bug in mpdgarp*. Fortunately, some OS's allow the -p option on calls to the mkdir program: (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) Just tested: LEdit, LDraw, LDLite, and Jacob's MPD-Splitter all work with forward slashes as well! (Again, for Jacob's splitter, the dir must already exist.) --Bram (25 years ago, 13-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: IMPORTANT - [ldraw.org] Official Model Repository
 
(...) Excellent, that's great news! One thing that MS-DOS didn't totally screw up back in the early days -- even though it copied CP/M's blunder of using \ instead of / -- was the low-level functions for accessing files. Surprisingly, many DOS (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dev)
