	There is a public domain PCB routing program available for the IBM
and the Mac. I know that the original C source code is also available and
may facilitate portability over to the Atari ST or Sun. If you have the Mac
option for the ST, then it should be a snap.

	The program can be found for the Mac on the anonymous FTP archives
at sumex-aim.stanford.edu it is listed under /info-mac/app/pcb-cad.hqx and
is encoded in Stuffit Binhex format (Mac compression schemes). It was
origanlly written by someone at Microsoft for the IBM (and unfortunately
is as tough to use as the IBM for a mac man).

	If you cannot do anonymous ftp, I can send you this program. It
comes with small instructions and modified (for macintosh) source code in
three segments (router, display, and printer). It can output in various
scales to a number of mac output devices.

	Hope that helps some....
