I had read it, but I didn't notice it was that ready. > Use emacs and it will ident in GNU style per default.

I currently use vim, but I can change to emacs/viper if that becomes an issue. > You'll probably never know anything about OpenDWG internals as it is > proprietary and closed source - unless you pay a US$150k > founder-membership fee! *That's* why I couldn't find the download link... > For LibreDWG, nothing that a 2 days reading can't help.
