It's funny you should mention that; I had the same thought once I'd
downloaded the latest version of L3P and started messing around with the
quality settings.
If I were to use a CSTUD.DAT file, what would have to be different about it
for L3P not to label it 'LEGO'? Does L3P recognize the "STUD.DAT" name and
automatically append the logo? If so, would the name "CSTUD.DAT" circumvent
that function? Would this be an acceptable course of action?
