Don't KILL XARA
Posted by: Anonymous [ip: 78.143.199.128] on November 23, 2007 03:12 AMIt's better than Inkscape for what I want to do.
Don't dictate what is better for me - I should know. I do know.
PLEASE don't kill Xara.
Everytime I come across some brilliant legally-hybrid application on Linux it gets killed. Take for example "Win4Lin 9x"
PLEASE don't kill Xara.
It is better than Inkscape - I need Xara Xtreme. It is absolutely superb for fast-line sketches (pen-drawings) and the colours are vibrant enough.
It increased my productivity by a factor of 10 compare to before on Inkscape.
And the learning curve was minimal.
I am doing lots of medical illustrations and being very productive.
Please don't kill Xara Xtreme. This is truly very sad.
