ANN: Graphos 0.3

[Riccardo Mottola]

G R A P H O S   0.3
-------------------



I am pleased to announce the third major public release of Graphos.


What's new?
-----------


The most important news is the further improved inspector. It is now 
modeless and real-time.

A new file format is needed to fix a problem with object layer save and 
restore. Graphos is able to read old files. The new format contains also 
a version attribute, so that in the future further enhancements will be 
possible.

Bug fixes, potability enhancements.


What is it?
-----------

Graphos is a vector drawing application centered around bezier paths. It is 
available as free software both for GNUstep and for Mac.


Graphos roots are directly set in GDraw, written by Enrico Sersale and 
released in 2000. Version 0.1 of Graphos is a direct descendant of 
GDraw: the interface is almost unchanged, but the application has been 
refactored, reorganized, debugged, rewritten and updated. The file 
format was improved a little, Graphos is able to read GDraw files but 
not the other way around. Graphos 0.1 focused mainly on getting things 
working again, cleaning and reorganizing the code structure.


Where to get it:
----------------


Graphos is a user application of GAP, the GNUstep Application Project. 
Its page is here:

What's next:
------------

Printing needs to be improved, some tools are still missing, but the 
application surely improved!
