Roger,
Thanks for the info.
There were some inconsistencies between what is documented on the demo
CD-ROM and some pages on your Web site.
As for porting to Linux, I guess that the older "legacy" Anvil5000 is
already "computer independent"/"cross-platform" and could be supported as
an X-Windows application. But, I have seen that there are alot of different
desktops to choose from. I think the KDE is the most popular one, but the
Linux crowd likes to have a choice.
It is too bad that you are not considering porting your new flagship Anvil
Express to Linux. I heard that someone in the Eugene Lug has an interest in
a Linux CAD program w. AutoCad compatibility. If you already provide
filters for SaveAS .dwg and Open .dwg; this may be enough to establish a
customer base out here.
If you should decide to port AE in Linux, or even better, release your
baseline product as Open Source; there are knowledgeable folks here who
would be eager to help you w. UI issues.
Your Web site mentions that you have been promoted to VP of Software
Development.
Congratulations,
Rodney
