although i'm currently a Catia driver, I also started out on a board. it seems that many people on the list want a Good 2d drafting page first and 3D next. i like to have the attitude that i will get the job done with what ever tools they give me(i ate those words once when a boss asked me to do some sketches in MS word. death could not have been more painful). anyway, i'd asked the author of DESI-iii what he decided about a linux port and he said that he was not at this time because only two people seemed interested. so i ask, what was wrong with it? what features do the existing 2D packages not have? ===== phrostie Oh I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ //www.freelists.org/webpage/cad-linux __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
