(...) Happy to investigate autotrace input, if someone can point me to a spec, or even better some code to parse it ;) Some test data would be useful too... ROSCO (20 years ago, 22-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)

(...) Hey. You know the bricksaic interface is also a really nice fit for a program to reproduce patterned bricks in ldraw. I gave it a whirl posterizing the only pattern I had a scan of and it did a fairly nice job. (URL) You could use a few paint (...)
