Dumb question 101...where are all the clip art files & how do i use them??? Linux SuSE 9.2; inkscape .40

I DLed what I thought was it, but that turned out to be a php file of a few Ks; then i found THE file, (all 44 megs?). But I haven't a clue where it went & how I access it.

I hate it when DLs put stuff where they want, rather than where I want!!! & then don't give me a clue how to use them.

Yes, the Linux file system is still a bit of a mystery to me.

the file would have been called openclipart-0.12.tar.bz2 or openclipart-0.12.tar.gz

Go to your root / and

find ./|grep 'openclipart-0'

Once "find" finds it for you, just unarchive it as normal

Argh!

find / -name "openclipart-*"

:-) Or try

locate openclipart-

Hi all,

as i think a few others have said, I would need vector import (notably dxf/dwg) for inkscape to really be indispensible for me (i'm an architect and i'm sure that this would be true for the rest of the design world). I don't know too much about the formats or what would be involved in adding this feature, but i ran across this and wondered if it was helpful. http://www.cadsofttools.com/

still lovin' inkscape though,

Hi Adam,

What we need is something that takes dxf or dwg as input, and emits svg as output (or vice versa). I don't know if any such thing exists, but keep your eye open, and if you run across something like that then it can probably be plugged in as an extension.

Another option would be dxf to eps, and then use Inkscape's eps->svg conversion, although I think a lot of information would be lost in the process. Might be worth a try though.
