(...) Oh, *that* catalog. :-, I thought it was a cheat-sheet sort of thing with mnemonics and all sorts of memory-keeping features. I definitely think that the LDraw FAQ should include a quick-n-dirty cheat sheet, then. Earlier in this thread (1) (...) (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

Another header...? I want to be able to make context-specific notes on the FAQ items, which will not be exposed in the final output. I'm thinking of something like a Comment: header, which the parser will discard during processing. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

(...) You or I could start work on this before translations or FAQ subset extraction are implemented; the bulk of the work in snarfing a FAQ will be to copy the existing questions into their own files and start creating headers. Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

FAQ crew, I've gathered 23 questions for the FAQ so far (1), and stuffed them into a holding patteren until the header format is closer to being finalized. In the mean time: I feel that we should allow an Originator header, to give credit towards (...) (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

I have a question: will the faq be able to display graphics? If so, this might be helpful in ID'ing who Timmy is, what a Timmy-torso is, etc. rather by pix than by text. It's obviously more work but I just I'd ask. -Tom McD. when replying, note that (...) (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

Hey y'all, We're really working to get a FAQ put together! :-, The FAQ will be patterned after the LUGNET site structure, and has room for Q+A on anything and everything you'd expect to see on LUGNET.
