Thanks, Paul,

But where can I find LDLite 2.2?
At http://www.gyugyi.com/l3g0/ldlite/ ver 2.0B seems to be hosted.
and at http://www.ldraw.org/download/software/ldlite ver 1.6B.


(I have LDAO installed in an old 486 with English Windows due to the Scnadinavian
comma separator issue...)

LDLite ver 2.2 and above has a working -R option to regenerate the
file in standard LDRAW syntax.  "ldlite -Rfoo.dat m_faust.dat"
would do the conversion.  There are other programs. I think LDAO
has an inliner option to do this maybe?

Is there any tool to make the lines properly rotated and translated without the

I haven't used MLCad for a while, but since I downloaded it and it took over
the Open action  for .DAT extension files, so when I doubleclicked on my file
m__faust.dat (below), it was opened in MLCad.
I noticed that the hands were not correctly oriented. In L3Lab, they come
correctly, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with the file. (Except I don't
like all these confusing rotate, transform, and translate metacommands).

(...) Try SourceForge, that's where I got my most recent copy. Paul has put the install package there, and is also using sf facilities to track feature requests and bug reports. Good stuff.
