Leading or trailing white space characters in file names

[Allen Smith]

Is it relevant to mention here that tokens on line types 1-4 MUST be separated by whitespace? I belive LDView (but maybe only older versions) recognises a leading minus sign as a delimiter (e.g

Code:

1 16  0 0 0  1 0 0  0 1 0  0 0-1 s\subpart.dat

would be valid syntax).

I do not consider that valid syntax, whether recognized by any program or not. So yes, fields MUST be delimited by whitespace.

I also agree with Travis: space and tab have been the only documented delimiters for many years, and it is inadvisable to add more.
