(this is a followup to an article about object oriented drawing vs
bitmapped drawing etc)
If people are looking for a draw program, I can heartily recomment
professional draw v2.0
In my opinion, it is considerably better than macdraw2.0 (I've used both
extensively), it's more powerful, it's faster, and its user interface is
more intuitive. [but its EPSF files are too complicated for the
laserwriter I try to print them on].

It's about as good as Adobe Illustrator.

It is also my opinion that GoldDisk should register a structured drawing
IFF as soon as possible 
(even PICT would be ok (athough it's a really REALLY weak format (no
splines except in comments [read program specific kludges]).

michael (who wants to run 2.0 on his 2000 soon, please).
