Island Draw (on unix boxes, either Motif or OpenLook) can import
Postscript and give you an editable structured object. From any old
postscript, it would seem. It read in stuff from Corel, OK that could
be easy with all those %Object comments. But it read in some hand
coded stuff I wrote and you could edit it with the mouse. Wierd. I was
impressed.
