I am looking for a MacDraw like program for UNIX and X11. I've used xpic until now, but I find that it is too limited in what it can do, and there and are too many things that it cannot do (like grouping objects and resizing of these objects). Thanks in advance. BJ

You might take a look at idraw (distributed with InterViews 2.6,
runs under X-Windows). It has many (if not all) features from
MacDraw 1.*, and is also quite mac-like in its appeareance.

Long ago I wrote 'xpaint' which is a VERY crude version of MacPaint. It can draw lines, bitmapped text, and a couble of other things. It tends to be a bit slow, and has one or two bugs, but it is free and available in the 'comp.sources.x' archives. For those of you who actually know of this program, I've not yet begun to work on "Version 2", since I've not had any copious free time recently (even though I almost started it over the holidays). -- name : David Koblas domain: koblas@cs.uoregon.edu place: Nowhere, I'm just an AI batch job. domain: koblas@mips.com quote: "Time has little to do with infinity and jelly donuts." ization: Subject: Re: UNIX MacDraw-a-like ?
