Hello,

I am looking for a CAD/CAM system with the following capabilities:

   - draw wireframe models of 3D objects
   - run on IBM PCs/Macintoshes/Workstations (any of these platforms is OK)
   - allow boolean subtraction/addition of solids
   - macros/scripting
   - libraries of objects
   - render (solidify) them relatively quickly (not totally necessary at the 
        moment)

If you know of any commercial/research software with these capabilities,
or have comments about CAD systems that you have used, i would love to
hear from you.

Thank you in advance,

Gordon
