programs. I'd recommend trying MLCad.

MLCad's readme specifically states to install LDRAW and LEDIT prior to
installing MLCAD.  Does this mean that MLCad will work, even though LDRAW
doesn't.  I'm not interested in drawing things, just in view previously
created instructions.

The LDraw website has been down for the weekend.

MLCad provides you the ability to view other people's LDraw files, just
ignore its ability to create new LDraw files.



actually i believe that MLCAD uses LDRAW as the core of the user
interface....  i actually have never tested to see if LDRAW or LEDIT ever
actually worked.  just jumped straight to MLCAD.  that's running on a system
upgraded from WINME to WIN2K


Hi Mike,

  It is my understanding that MLCad uses the LDraw.org parts data base, but not
LDraw or LEdit executable.  I will test this when I get home.
