DXF export is now possible...

At my website (http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~squiresm/), that hopefully will not be needed much more, I have posted .inx and .sh files that will export to dxf using pstoedit. I found that dxf is already supported, there are a fair number of features that I haven't explored. The conversion seems to be ok.

I also have more functionality in the dxf import. Layers are supported and I have turned linetypes back on. The linetype is a little buggy because it is defined in two places and I have tried to make a good decision about which definition takes precedence. I also fixed problems with bulges in plines and lwplines. The files are there for color conversion, but I haven't included the color yet in the SVG.

I am open to people sending me their favorite dxf and then I test it against AutoCAD (there is a license at school) or if you test a file and you don't see what you want then let me know.

Eric: Along those lines... you are right the projection of a tilted circle on a plane below should look elliptical. I will fix that sometime later.

Generally, our policy is to provide at least one patch, and if good, then we give you cvs...it is our primary policy.

I will get a patch tomorrow when I have better facilities
