Well, with the stock market tanking and the prospects of a
manditory pre-IPO crunch-time fading, I may have spare cycles
to do something over Christmas.
Please let me know who uses LDLite and how it is used.
With all the other spin-around-and-view programs, I'm inclined
just to concentrate on it being a tool to generate instruction
sheets (sort of like LaTex or POV), rather than add interactive
features (sort of like Word).
My short list of work items:
1) Fix file system and file name bugs.
2) Fix memory/cachesize issues that cause large MPDs to fail.
3) Change output to PNG with alpha-channel so output can be
overlayed on backgrounds.
4) Support 300 dpi resolution on an A4 sheet, on a machine
with enough ram and disk.
5) Support setting the width in pixels of Type 2 and Type 5 lines.

| (...) As I have pointed out before, this is my most wanted feature upgrade of LDLITE nowadays. It looks a bit odd to see rendered images where the type 2 lines are 3 pixels wide, while the type 5 lines are plain one pixel wide. The other things you (...)

| (...) I use the ldglite as my default viewer, and as we all know it's just a thin port of the ldlite 1.6 source. I know I'm looking forward to some of these new goodies and I think there might be one or two other linux/BSD/*nix users out there who (...) (24 years ago, 4-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
