I get the impression some in this thread are confusing CAD
programs (particularly Architectural) with simple drawing
programs.
For those that haven't used CAD programs, they typically
include the ability to draw, manipulate and edit things at
different "scales" than what you see on the paper. Beyond
that, they have a much deeper selection of tools and
capabilities ("snapping", "layers", programmability, etc.)
than a common drawing program.
AFAIK, Pagestream (as great a DTP app as it has been) has
never tried to offer most of these drafting capablities.
DynaCADD, Cycas and a few other Amiga CAD programs have
appeared over the years. But none have ever been close to
"modern" or have seen their code touched in decades.
A real pity. I'd love to scrap using Macs for my CAD
work.
