LibreCAD. LibreCAD is a computer-aided design (CAD) application for 2D design. It is free and open-source, and available for Unix / Linux, macOS, and Windows operating systems. Most of the interface and handle concepts are analogous to AutoCAD, making it easier to use for users with experience in this type of commercial CAD application.
The user, upon typing 'pointlabel' at the AutoCAD command line, would be prompted to pick a point, either by typing the X and Y coordinates, or clicking a location in the drawing. The function would then place a marker at that point, and create a one-line text object next to it, containing the X and Y coordinates of the point expressed relative ...
A man using AutoCAD 2.6 to digitize a drawing of a school building. AutoCAD was derived from a program that began in 1977, and then released in 1979 [5] called Interact CAD, [6] [7] [8] also referred to in early Autodesk documents as MicroCAD, which was written prior to Autodesk's (then Marinchip Software Partners) formation by Autodesk cofounder Michael Riddle.
AutoCAD version history. AutoCAD is a commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting software application by Autodesk. The first release of the software started with version 1.0 in December 1982. [1] The software has been continuously updated since its initial release. AutoCAD opens documents with DWG compatibility as a "DWG file format ...
A keyboard layout is any specific physical, visual, or functional arrangement of the keys, legends, or key-meaning associations (respectively) of a computer keyboard, mobile phone, or other computer-controlled typographic keyboard. Physical layout is the actual positioning of keys on a keyboard. Visual layout is the arrangement of the legends ...
DWG (from drawing) is a proprietary [3] binary file format used for storing two- and three- dimensional design data and metadata. It is the native format for several CAD packages including DraftSight, AutoCAD, ZWCAD, IntelliCAD (and its variants), Caddie and Open Design Alliance compliant applications.
Caddie (CAD system) Caddie is a mid-range computer-assisted draughting (CAD) software package for 2D and 3D design. It is used primarily by architects, but has tools for surveyors and mechanical, civil and construction engineers. It was initially designed as an electronic drawing board, using concepts and tools clearly related to a physical board.
The space-cadet keyboard is a keyboard designed by John L. Kulp in 1978 and used on Lisp machines at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), [2][3][4] which inspired several still-current jargon terms [citation needed] in the field of computer science and influenced the design of Emacs. It was inspired by the Knight keyboard, which was ...
