Learning GRAPHICS

[Gösta H. Lovgren-2]

I don't know what the specific AutoCAD application of the .DAT file is, but the actual drawing information is stored in the .DWG file and I'm sure contains a lot more geometry data than what you found in the .DAT file.

Actually JR, I honestly don't remember if it was a .DAT or what but just remember it was an ASCII file. And probably what I was looking at was just one of several/many files AC used for the drawing and I thought it was just the data AC used for the Universe drawing.

AC is a extraordinarily complex application and I did not mean to imply otherwise, only that I know it used vectors and they seem very powerful.
