        Re: Instruction Tutorial - Dry Goods Store —Dean R. Hennen
     (...) simple to build but is so detailed! Nice use of parts for the shop objects and I especially like the way you made the top "sign part" on the roof. I have to say that your design looks a lot better than TLC's Wild West General Store design. (...) (22 years ago, 16-May-03, to lugnet.inst)
    
         Re: Instruction Tutorial - Dry Goods Store —Benjamin Ellermann

         Re: Instruction Tutorial - Dry Goods Store —Benjamin Ellermann

   Hi Ben, It is nice to see how people use LPub to create building instructions. As the author I've been curious how people use LPub as part of a process. This helps me plan for future enhancements to LPub. (...) I was thinking about writing up a web (...) (22 years ago, 16-May-03, to lugnet.inst)
   
        Re: Instruction Tutorial - Dry Goods Store —Benjamin Ellermann
     (...) I hope my images and article will help you. I am only using version 2.0.0.58 It is simple to use. No offense but the other documentation for future versions is very long and somewhat confusing. Newbies would be extremely lost. I think there (...) (22 years ago, 16-May-03, to lugnet.inst)
    
         Re: Instruction Tutorial - Dry Goods Store —Kevin L. Clague
     (...) There will always be one version of LPub, but I know LPub too well to write a good beginner document. Anyone want to volunteer to write one? I already wrote a chapter in a book on LPub, so it will be a while before I get enough literary energy (...) (22 years ago, 16-May-03, to lugnet.inst, lugnet.cad)

     <snip> (...) You are very welcome. I'm not offended in the least. As a person with an artistic eye, I really don't think that you can make a computer program that can replace the human element and hope to come up with the beauty of something like (...)

   (...) I don't mean to sound dense, but I just want to see if I understand correctly. The image noted above was created by by LPub, utilizing L3P and POV-Ray while not requiring the user to actually launch the other programs? If I am reading some of (...)
