That's fine with me.  The only downside is applying updates.  When new parts are
released for LDraw, I don't update individual partsref images and pages, I just
regenerate the whole shebang.  So any manual edits would probably get
overwritten.  Anyone got a good idea on avoiding this?

Are you familiar with the make utility?  It allows you to describe an
arbitrary set of modules, with their associated interdependencies, and then
re-build only the modules which have changed and modules dependant upon them.

Of course, using make would require that you can build each image and html
file from the command-line, one at a time.

(...) Yep, I'm familiar with make. I even went to look for one once. Do you know how hard it is to search the net for 'make'? I never could figure out a decent set of search-words... Oh, wait. I've got a make.exe with my old copy of Turbo Pascal. (...) (24 years ago, 2-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.cad.ray)
