Hi all,
It seems that every week or two that someone asks if an equivalent to
Autocad is available on FC. Two Intellicad-based CAD packages, running
under Wine, are now available as betas:
http://www.progesoft.com/cadforlinux/files/ProgeSOFT_CADforLINUX_Setup-1.1.0.tar.bz2
(unlimited use until end of 2005)
and
http://www.bricscad.com/about/download/downloadForm.jsp?product=B4L
(expires end of October 2004)
You'll need to download a Wine rpm also
(http://www.winehq.com/site/download).
Although they run under Wine, they have the same basic command-line
command set as Autocad, and they read dwg files directly, making them
much easier to migrate to than QCad or Varicad.
Personally, I find the Progesoft version very promising under FC1.
