I wrote a little utility for making hexgrids which some of you might find of use. Here's the release announcement:
* mkhexgrid 0.1.0 has been released. * What is mkhexgrid? mkhexgrid is a small, command-line program which generates hexagonal grids of the sort used for strategy games. Hex grids can be created as PNG or SVG images, and as PostScript. Virtually every aspect of the output can be be adjustedâ--from grid line thickness and color, to style and size of hex centers, to the style and position of hex coordinates. mkhexgrid makes it simple to create whatever hex grid you need. * Where can I get mkhexgrid? mkhexgrid is available here http://www.nomic.net/~uckelman/mkhexgrid/ as pre-built Windows and Linux binaries and as source. If you build mkhexgrid for a platform for which I don't provide binaries (e.g. Mac OS X), let me know---I might be interested in providing binaries for that platform in the future. mkhexgrid has few dependencies (only GD and FreeType), so should be simple to build on most Unix systems. * How much does it cost? mkhexgrid is free and open-source. * Please let me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) know if you find any bugs, or have comments, feature requests, or probelms. I want to make this as useful as possible, but I can't fix problems that no one tells me about. * Enjoy! -- J. Yahoo!
