Hello,

I have been working on this project for a while and now it's time to share
it.

I hope it will be useful to people on this list and elsewhere. It is free
(as in libre).

IgnoCodeLib: http://ignotus.com/ignocodelib/

IgnoCodeLib implements complex graphics objects consisting of lines and
cubic Bézier curves, simple text, geometric transforms, hierarchical display
list and document structure, simple facilities for permutations and random
numbers, and above all, export of graphics and text to the Adobe Illustrator
7.0 file format. This format can be read by all current versions of AI. All
components in the document structure support cascading calls to draw(),
transform() and write() methods. Drawing to display and writing to file can
sometimes be accomplished with a single line of code. Geometric transforms
are nearly as easy. IgnoCodeLib is distributed under the Gnu Lesser General
Public License <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html>.

All the images in this Flickr
set<http://www.flickr.com/photos/ignotus/sets/72157626088733463/>were
created with this software.
The code is far from perfect, as is the documentation, but there are several
examples that I hope will help people to use the code. The Javadocs are good
enough to help people who read Javadocs, or so I hope. I will write
tutorials, but at this moment it's better to release the library so people
can hammer on it. There comes a point when you have have to shove your
children out the door to play because they have too much energy to stay
indoors.

My apologies if this message is insufficiently angstvoll for NetBehaviour
(;^}), but dang it, once in while a good tool comes in handy. Nay, is a
veritable pleasure.  I hope this one pleases.

hammer gently,

-- Paul
