(...) Oops, found it. (URL) in case I lose it again: Delaunay, triangle, vectorize, mesh, polyline, voronoi, and tesselate! That oughta do it... Don (20 years ago, 21-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Uh. Wow. Yeah, that should do what I need. If it can fill in Lake Superior, it should handle my little de-rasterized figure. I suspect that using Triangle on my little polygon-filling exercise will be like using a firehose to water a flower (...) (20 years ago, 21-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Well, just in case you change your mind on gcc, it really is easy. (URL) Anyway, thanks for the link. Once I have results, I post them somewhere. Speaking of links and firehoses, here's a short list of alternative triangle mesh generators. (...) (20 years ago, 21-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Err, twisted is probably a good call. I followed a few links and did see some with free windows executables, and I thought I saw some that mentioned other "normal" formats like STL and/or DXF? Anyhow, I compiled triangle for windows if you (...) (20 years ago, 21-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Err, no. That would have required some RTFM on my part, which seriously conflicts with the coefficient of laziness. Somebody turn off that firehose, pronto! (20 years ago, 21-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
