I just registered to say thanks, the ldraw.xml file has been a life saver for me!

Request to use ldraw.xml and a possible fix

Hi Mike.

I’m writing a small program focused on LEGO Digital Designer users, planning to add more features.
Main functions of program are:
* build a catalog of owned bricks and sets
* check a LDD MOC project against your own catalog of bricks to see if you can build the MOC
* export a list of brick in XML format to buy them on Bricklink.

One feature I wish to add will be the capability to import LDraw MOC files and use it.

I ask permission to include a function for read your ldraw.xml and use the equivalences in it, to enable users to import LDraw MOC files without using LDD for file conversion.

PS: I checked briefly your file, and I see that you made the brick 1x4 (ldraw id 3010) converts in LDD part id 3066. I think it is better to convert to LDD part id 3010:
LDRAW <-> LDD
3010 <-> 3010 brick 1x4 with bottom tubes
3066 <-> 3066 brick 1x4 without bottom tubes (usually for transparent colors)

Thank you.
