LDCad 1.7 Alpha 1 (win+linux)

I can't remember if I've mentioned this before, but have you ever considered a way to view (if not also edit) the unaltered source of a file? This could be either as a "verbose" option for the source window, or maybe as a separate console window.

Right now I have to use an external editor, and there's no way to "poll" between the two programs. Also, the standard text editor on the Mac does not have a "reload" command (which is its own fault, of course), so I have to manually close and re-open the text file to see changes made in LDCad.

The types of source I most often need to see are a) group information, and b) exact dimensions of generated flexible parts, both of which I know have come up as possible features on their own. But it's also helpful sometimes to be able to quickly find something in an MPD file by using a text search, for example.
