Inkscape makes various bits of me tingle. In a good way. So does Dasher. I am also quite a fan of the various simple puzzle type games available for those killing-time moments. (I've done a blog on my top ten here - http://tinyurl.com/3924z6 ) And if that's not enough, I'm regularly amazed by the wide, wide, WIDE range of programs available for installation. Example: probably not something a lot of people need but I recently needed to make a cross-stitch sewing pattern. I anticipated having to draw it in Inkscape (purrrr) and then (tediously) make the pattern by hand in either Inkscape or GIMP - but a quick search on Synaptic revealed there is a piece of software (kxstitch) that does all the pattern making for you. It's not perfect yet but the fact it's there, for free and free, is just wonderful. -louisa :) -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
