Geert, There are some .ps files floating around that can be used to print your own optical encoders, and since postscript is a programming language they are relatively easily modified to do weird stuff such as in http://fennetic.net/pub/irc/encoder-panelized.ps however i find postscript can be hard to understand sometimes, so i rewrote it in python: http://fennetic.net/pub/irc/draw_encoder.py hope this proves useful to someone -fenn ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
