Note: txt2dat relies on the vector data being a series of closed contours.
It also currently only supports the notion of foreground colour and
background colour, specified on the command line, not in the source data. It
might be better to do this as a separate project - dxf2dat or something.

Yeah, I was actually thinking the best thing would be to paste your
ldraw triangle generator code right into the output code of autotrace.
About a year ago I hacked
a cheesy ldr output into autotrace, but it
only does edge lines. I think we had some ideas about treating each
color as the foreground and then adding up all the forgrounds to make
the holes for the background. Or something like that. Anyhow, I
got distracted before I dug too deep into the triangle code, probably
because I realized we still needed the ldraw color bitmap posterizer.

Looks like that might be the best way to go. I haven’t looked at autotrace yet,
how does it handle colour? Even if bricksaic converts it to the ldconfig colour
pallette, I imagine the colours output by autotrace will still need to be
converted back to LDraw values?
