I sent the following email to complain about this usenet
abuse. I suggest everyone else who is sick of this moron's
behaviour does the same.
If you do decide to send a complaint snip the whole message
from "Start of sent message" to "End of sent message" and
send it to the list of email addresses just after
"Start of sent message".
Please only send one copy each of this message. We will make
our cause by many single responses, NOT by mailbombing them.
If the ISP involved gets enough grief they WILL stop this
moron from spamming.

Please terminate the accounts and web pages of this usenet spammer.
They send this message or a copy of it every week to a large number

comp.os.linux.development.apps,comp.os.linux.hardware) have a charter
strickly prohibiting advertising material of this nature.

The drawings from LinuxCAD can be easily imported in such packages as
Quark Express
using Postscript export feature !!!
LinuxCAD v 1.55
Version 1.55 includes important additions for producing hardcopy
output:
1. to HPGL compatible plotters ,
2. to DeskJet and LaserJet ,
3. to Postscript
4. to LinuxCAD MS Windows based Print server.
Notably output to Desk Jet can be renbdered in colors !!!
check and see for yourself:
================ ( ! )
http://www.linuxcad.com
Regular price is only $99 , for a complete CAD package !!!
Only $80 , for full time students !!!
New high quality professional CAD and visual modelling software
( company from Illinois offers its visual modelling and graphics
editing
technology to empower your personal Linux Workstations or enterprise
scale business applications. ).
http://www.linuxcad.com
LinuxCAD ( or also known under title FreedomCAD ) is a Computer
Aided Drafting
package in many aspects analogous to well known product AutoCAD of
Autodesk Inc.
LinuxCAD has been developed absolutely independently from scratch ,
it is a native Unix
application.
The outline of the main features:
1) LinuxCAD provides great variety of entity types ( lines , circles ,
ellipses , traces , text ,
polylines , solids , doughnuts , arcs , user defined entities and 3D
entities ) ,
2) LinuxCAD implements all necessary editing features ( scale ,
rotate , mirror , offset , array , copy , move , hatch ... ).
3) Allows up to 1000 layers, with ability to control layer color and
visibility independently.
4) All entities are transferable to and from AutoCAD through DXF
exchange format.
5) Supports user defined line types and load able fonts in SHX format.
6) Supports a hardcopy to printers.
7) Parts of the drawing can be copied between different instances of
the LinuxCAD using X-Clipboard.
8) LinuxCAD has industry standard Motif GUI.
9) Allows users to write custom applications for automating typical
editing and drafting tasks
using industry most popular C-compiler GCC.
