Looking for public domain sources (or pointers to commercially licensable sources), for an object oriented graphic editor for Xwindows environment. (An editor that would produce a list of objects, say rectangles, lines, etc. rather than a bitmap). HP ships an editor called 'xgedit', but without source. Does anyone know how to get source for it? -Joe Pistritto- (jcp@brl.mil)

I just found Mark Moraes's xpic extremely useful. It produces lists of
objects which are post-processed into pic or ps or tpic format.
The source recently was sent through comp.sources.x.
