LDraw.org 2017-01 Parts Update Now Available

[Chris Dee]

It looks like a UTF-8 Byte Order Mark (BOM) was added to ldconfig.ldr, which causes an error to show up any time any model is loaded in LDView (although the error doesn't otherwise hurt anything). I'll see about getting LDView to ignore UTF-8 BOMs in all files, but given the infrequency at which LDView released, it could be a while before this fix is released. LDCfgalt.ldr doesn't appear to have a BOM.

I edit the LDConfig with LibreOffice and save as .txt. Anything I can do?

I think I introduced this in converting the file Willy supplied from UNIX line-endings to DOS line-endings. The version on the server at ldconfig.ldr is fixed (thanks Steffen). It looks like I need to do an emergency mini-release to fix this and other minor glitches in 2017-01.
