Summary: Rejects as RS-274D if there's no aperture definition

Initial Comment:
When I load a supposedly RS-274X compliant file into gerbv (this is the Windows 
version), it doesn't process it, reporting back to the user --
  C:\Documents and Settings\...\layer.art: Found RS-274D file -- not supported 
by gerbv.
  could not read C:\Documents and Settings\...\layer.art[0]

But if I manually insert any aperture definition into the file (for example, 
"%ADD61C,.1*%") then it processes in gerbv without any problem.
Isn't it slightly too severe, to prevent viewer processing just because of 
that?  Thanks; Larry.

Message:
Larry,
   Thanks for the bug report.  I've never seen this case before....your
file is completely composed of polygon fills with no aperture definitions. 
Technically, a valid RS-274X file is required to have at least 1 "AD"
command in it (see page 9 of the spec).  So the file is actually not valid.
 However, we do try and read in as many files (even "bad" files) as we can,
so I think this is a good reason to relax this rule and try to read the
file in anyways, since gerbv will render it jsut fine.  I'll work on a fix
for this and let you know when I've pushed it.

Cheers,
Julian
