I'm working on SMP support in LDView, and I'd like to have someone with a machine with 4 CPU cores test it to see if it works properly on machines with more than 2 CPU cores (my CPU is a dual-core). (SMP is symmetric multi processing: multiple CPUs, (...) (16 years ago, 11-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Thanks Philo! I've limited to dots per inch inch and dots per centimeter. This is nice from a formatting pespective because margins and sizes fall into smaller ranges than with inches and meters. Kevin (16 years ago, 10-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I'd say that DPM or DPMM make perfect sense. The thing is, your description said that units are all in CM or IN, and that M and MM aren't supported. And yet, you force the user to specify which units to use in either IN, M, or MM. That seems (...) (16 years ago, 6-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
