Hmm.  It needs just a bit of programming.  Something like the following,
depending on your development toys (view in fixed-pitch font for best
results).

Note: CONVERT.EXE is part of ImageMagick, available for most platforms.

// Process all colors
For iColor = 0 To 15, 17 to 23, 32 to 47, 57, 334, 382, 383, 431, 462
   // Process all part-files
   For all sPart in Dir c:\ldraw\parts\*.*
      // clean out LDraw's output directory
      erase "c:\ldraw\bitmap\*.*"
      // run LDLite
      shell "start /wait ldlite " + sPart + " -MS -C" + iColor
      // convert the output image to gif and move to a staging area.
      shell "convert c:\ldraw\bitmap\*.* gif:c:\stagingarea\"
            + FileName(sPart) + "-" + iColor + ".gif"
   Next sPart
Next iColor

Another approach would be to grab all the RGB values from Suzanne's color
chart, and write out a bunch of mini-DAT files that create the parts in
each of the RGB colors.  If you want some direction on that, let me know.

Is there a way to get LDLITE to have the image of the part take up all of the available space in the image file? I've been playing with this off and on, and am trying to get the part to be as big as will fit in the image. All I seem to get is an (...) (24 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
