Yuck! ... dont get me started :). First of all, it's not a native Mac application - it's a Linux port that uses X11, so it doesn't even have a proper menu and doesn't use the standard Mac keyboard shortcuts. If you're a long time Mac user (maybe even still knowing MacDraw), then this is certainly something you wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. I tried it - it's slow, it flickers and it's a work in progress that might never reach version 1.0 ... But please let's stop here, this is getting off topic, since there's quite a lot of applications that might work for lace design or just scaling and printing out scanned patterns - for people who like the typical Mac look and feel I still think EazyDraw might be a very good choice, since it's built around the features of OSX.
