As you may remember (I asked you to implement the "compare regardless of
color") I'm a happy and frequent user of the Parts Catalog program and my
complete LEGO collection is maintained by your program. I've already
installed it and will use it from now on. Glad to hear that you're still
adding functionality!


the major change is that parts catalog can now render images using LDraw=20
dat files.  this means no more hunting and downloading pictures, just keep=
=20
your dat files up to date.  this also means that the parts can now be in=20
the correct color.   before you can use dat files you must set the=20
LDRAW.exe directory.  this can be done in the more screen.  (press the=20
'More' button at the bottom of the parts catalog main screen)

Perfect! That saves up a lot of diskspace and maintaining. I assume that for
the parts not known in LDRAW you still can use the images folder to install
the (custom) pics?


i need help with the LDraw colors.  i have matched up some of the peeron=20
color names with LDraw color codes.  but there are many that still need=20
matching up.

There are some sites available which list the LEGO colors. Does Peeron not
