It struck me when someone asked about doing DTP on the IT, that I haven't yet come across a vector drawing app for the N800. There was Dia for the 770, but AFAIK it hasn't been forward-ported.

Would something like the venerable Xfig (http://xfig.org/) be portable to maemo? It's pretty stable and generic enough that it could serve as a drawing package, CAD thingie and even a simple DTP proggie.

Hi Karel. It might be happening soon:

That would be great; Dia is a nice program. Maybe a bit over-geared towards diagrams and flowcharts (well, it'd have to be, with that name :rolleyes:), but it'll do.

It's significantly bigger than xfig though...
