QS Cad Version 0.5 1998

This project was an academic exercise I undertook one week over the
christmas holidays some years ago.
The goal was to see if tcl/tk was man enough to perform the task of a real
application.
A Wanted to get the application under 100K (minus comments) but currently it
is around 110K of source lines. I estimate that the finished application would
be 200K but still not bad for a complete package.

I looked at projects such as geda et al and came to the conclusion that
EDA applications are not well supported by the net comunity and take a very
long time to develop.

Although the application is not finished I am releasing the it as it may be
a usefull starting point for someone.

It also demonstrates how quickly tcl/tk can be over traditional C/C++ programs for
a gui application.

The win for tk is that the canvas is powerfull enough to be used as the database for
the visual objects and thus removes the requirement to develop code for managing
the object data and translate for the visual interface.

to run just type qscad or 'wish qscad'

Under windows doubleclick on  RUN.TCL.
