I'd love to try it but my Linux experimentation time is so limited these
days I can't say when.  But if he does manage to assemble it under Linux
and gets an installable package for it, please do post to the list about
it.  I'll have to see what I can do about it then.

No.  But I'm also interested to find out what's available for CAD under
Linux (for a friend who uses CAD).  I've never used CAD before, so am
unable to evaluate properly any such software.  But could you keep us
posted as to what you find and its capabilities?

Thanks, James
