Yes, I've seen it, had to watch the whole thing, it is so fascinating. If I ever decide to invest in such a machine, it'll be an expensive one that allows me to digitize my own graphics (not just ready-made sets), preferably as vectors. In which case doing *that* isn't so much of a challenge any more. I've coveted one of those for a while, but currently cannot justifty getting one, neither for fun nor for my tiny craft business as that one is concentrated on the pre-steam era. However, I'm planning to use MetaPost to create blackwork charts, I've got the feeling that it'll give me neater results than any existing software. And I won't be stuck with one OS, either. :-) Mari ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
