Changes:
With the release of 1.8.66 you are able to...
- ...use the change winding tool (j) on type 2 and type 5 lines, swapping the end points.
- ...have the "verbose" option common to nearly all tools, and be remembered between sessions.
- ...deep inline a subfile and it will mark the end of that subfile, too.
- ...have the CR LF at the end of a line to be included in the selection when you click on a line number.
The following critical issues are fixed:
- "Merge To Nearest Vertex" recognized condline control points as vertices to merge for.
- The LDraw library URL was outdated (www.ldraw.org -> library.ldraw.org).
- 3D scenes only rendered to 1/4 of 3D window in some rare cases.

When you install LDPE on Windows you will find your LDPE configuration files under
drive\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\LDPartEditor.
LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

- Operating System (64-bit): Windows [7 or newer], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]

Recommended Requirements:
- Operating System (64bit): Windows 7,8,10, Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6]

- For a faster start, the LDraw™ library should be installed on a SSD.
PS: I am still busy with the creation of the manual, so you "have to experiment" with my (complex) software product until you've got the manual.
