All, This is to let you know that I have designed, tested, and released a simple wrapper around Peter Selig's Potrace raster to vector conversion facility.
This is the same conversion engine as is used in Inkscape. This wrapper incorporates the Potrace code so that a separate dll for Potrace is unnecessary, simply drop the distribution directory under /Lib/site-packages and away you go!!! The Potrace application normally creates an SVG or other file format related vector file. This wrapper simply generates a list of curves, where each curve is a list of move, line, and cubic bezier control points... This is great for those building thier own 2D and 3D visualization projects. It works very nicely, and can be found in Sourceforge under https://sourceforge.net/projects/PyPotrace or by searching Sourceforge using the PyPotrace project name. If you want to see The Eternal Squire write more wrongs and perform other backslashbuckling deeds of an heroic nature, please consider donating via one of his projects on SourceForge!!! Sincerely, The Eternal Squire -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
