In GIMP Pain ting with hard edged pixels [3 tools to the right of T in the toolbox] seems to make an effect a bit like charcoal.

I have both programs. In INkscape I think that the calligraphic tool, especially with the effects tool if it can change line thickness or roughness, is the best I can find. I will have a look at GIMP.

Or can anyone recommend a (preferably open-source or freeware) graphics program that can emulate a charcoal stick drawing on a rough paper. A vector graphics program is preferred but a paint program is okay.
