  Claris CAD on a MacintoshSE with 4Megs. Most of the time it took to do the
VA13 plans was spent setting up a library of irisvalves, chairs, freshers,
beds etc, etc.

  The most useful feature I found in the CAD program was the ability to fill a
closed object with squares of a certain size. It is originally ment to
be used for drawing patterns that indicate the material if a certain part, but
it is perfect for doing the 1.5m squares :-)

  (I imagine that it's a standard function in CAD programs)

  There once were a bogus altnet newsgroup for fans of the Muppets that was
named alt.swedish.chef.bork.bork.bork.
