I included an image on the post, but it didn't appear as an image, so I'm going to have to ask: Of the things I have downloaded (for there are many) which should I not attempt to install (which ones would be a waste of virtual space and valuable time)?
I recognize that this part of the question remains unanswered—for my part, I can't really advise, since I recognize very few of those files. The only things from this bunch that I have installed are Bricksmith and LSynth, plus of course the LDraw library itself. (And then I have LDCad, in lieu of MLCad—and that more or less supersedes Bricksmith and LSynth since it has the functionality of both, with more active support.) However, LDView and LPub are both referred to frequently by other users, so you may well find them useful to install, too.
