http://www.vectaport.com/pub/src/ivtools-0.6.2.tgz and
http://www.vectaport.com/pub/src/ivtools-0.6.2-LINUX.tgz now
available.

ivtools is a collection of application frameworks for drawing editors
and spatial data servers.  Written in C++, it incorporates an
alternate distribution of InterViews, Unidraw, and idraw.  Then adds
to them libraries for command interpreting, observer/observable dialog
boxes, evolved export/import, multi-frame editing, and graph browsing.

This release adds support for University of Minnesota's qhull, making
use of it in a convex hull drawing tool. It also adds an attribute
expression interpreter to the drawing editor framework and sample
editors.  Other new features at:

The binary tar file contains a complete set of shared libraries, from
RedHat 4.1, to run the sample interpreters and drawing editors. There
are Debian ivtools packages, created by Guenter Geiger, available as
well.
