Re: [BLUG] OCT Meeting Topic

Hey Ben, I just wanted to saw that those are excellent drawings. If
you can, you should submit those to Inkscape's website as samples.

Re: [BLUG] OCT Meeting Topic

I do a fair amount of stuff with inkscape.. I could probably give a
presentation on it. Autotrace is built into inkscape and is pretty easy
to use, provided that your starting material isnt too messy. Scribus,
qcad, and gimp also have their uses.

Here's something I just drew today in inkscape:
http://fenn.dyndns.org/pub/sketches/emc-splash/mazak.png

here's another one i really like:
http://fenn.dyndns.org/pub/sketches/emc-splash/fanuc-illust.png

I also need to mess around with vector formats for making printed circuit
boards. HPGL, RS-274X, postscript, dxf.

Postscript is fun to play with too, for highly algorithmic stuff. i.e:
http://fenn.dyndns.org/pub/irc/encoder-panelized.ps

I would probably need someone else to provide a computer for the
presentation, as my laptop is too slow for this stuff.

[BLUG] OCT Meeting Topic

I could stand to hear a few hours about vector images,
format(s) and editors if anyone here feels like
talking.
Specifically tracing raster images and manipulating
them. Also freehand drawing with vectors.

Re: [BLUG] FREE: NexT Systems

I had a NeXT mono slab that I used as a terminal to ssh from. Wow it
was a great machine, I still miss it. I even ran Distributed Net on
it...wow it was not fast.

It could be argued that I am *nix user today because of the Nations NeXT
lab in the stupid^H^H^H^H^H^Hstudent building. I missed soooo many
classes while IRCing from there. My silver and copper accounts didn't
hurt either.

Re: [BLUG] FREE: NexT Systems

I had a pair of alpha 3000s but they were throw out after a garage
sale by an unknowing wife :)

Oh well...

Re: [BLUG] FREE: NexT Systems

I think I know who managed to get it...

I distinctly remember talking to someone just this past weekend about
how much he wished he had a NeXT cube or an Alpha...

Mine as well, I'd kill for a NeXT cube or alpha. I
have a Kaypro ][ though :D
