[cad-linux] Re: Linux drawing viewer

Thanks for trying out my program.  I am not sure what the error is that you 
are getting, but I don't think it is OpenDWG related since the 2 OD libraries 
I linked are static ones (.a files).  I suspect the problem is with the 
graphics drivers linked by my computer not agreeing with the ones needed for 
your computer.  I wish I knew more about the inner workings of Linux, but I 
have my hands full trying to figure out C++.  

I have also been dealing with a slowly dying hard drive over the past couple 
of week so not a whole lot of free time here, but I'll try to post the source 
code for the latest version (the ones with the binaries) this weekend so you 
can try to compile it yourself.

The command line program is an interesting request.  Before I started the 
graphical program I wrote a command line program to read a drawing file and 
then save it back to disk in either dxf or dwg format.  I wanted to make sure 
that I could actually use the OpenDWG libraries before I got too far.  It 
would need a complete rewrite (trust me on this one) but should not be hard 
to do.  If I get some time I'll fiddle around with it.  I'll keep you all 
posted.

Andy
