Does anyone know of a "Draw" program for the IBM PC similar to MacDraw?
I am interested in a tool that draws texts, circles, arrows, etc., *but*
is aware of the objects that you draw so that you can enlarge/shrink them
or move or delete them on an object basis, not on a pixel block basis.
All of the "paint" programs I have seen simply dump the object into the paint
buffer and forget about them (with the exception of 1 undo step).  Any
time you want to move something, you must move a solid area of pixels.
If you want to delete something, you have to rub it out pixel by pixel
by repainting in background color.

Any ideas?
