   Are there any not-too-expensive drawing programs for the Macintosh
that permit direct numerical editing of points or coordinates (i.e.,
line vertices), and possibly other parameters, as _text_ (i.e., as
numbers in a table or array)?  -- and possibly the import of number
pairs in tabular form and their conversion to line segments or
polynomial objects?

   [Maybe even the ability to edit numerically the center point,
radius, and arc limits of a circular arc?]

   I know that MacDraw II can _measure_ or display lengths or
coordinate values; but I'm not aware of any program like MacDraw or
SuperPaint that permits one to edit such values numerically.
