Hi Allen,

I suppose you are running Linux, and it's straight forward to install the newest development version of LibreCAD in Linux. Currently, debian, ubuntu, gentoo and archlinux all have native packages.

Please follow our docs at:

http://librecad.org/cms/home/installation/linux.html

http://librecad.org/cms/home/from-source/linux.html

For further assistance, talk to us on irc: #librecad at freenode.net, please be patient on irc: just ask your question, and keep the window open, if there's no one there to answer your question. I know Ries reads irc logs, and replies questions asked when he is off.

For the next implementation, I am going to get "Problem of Apollonius", i.e., find a tangential circle of three given circles. This feature will be extended to include:

find a tangential circle of two given circles and a given line;
find a tangential circle of one given circle and two given lines;
LibreCAD already supports drawing a tangential circle or three given lines.

Thanks,

dxli

dxli,

One other thing!

I lost the help files when I down loaded 2.0.
I looked and could only find RC 2 for OSX and Windows.
Any chance I could find and install those files from somewhere??
