To All;

I have just started coding in C for some Survey Functions within LibreCAD.  

My efforts are as follows:

Coding within Eclipse.

Creating Command Line Functions to do Coordinate Geometry the way Surveyors generally enter such information.

The math is quite elementary, the usefulness of the final tools will be in that it is the way Surveyors think of their Geometry.

As of right now I am setting up an array of double percision points that represent our 'control points'.

From thier data entry routines from the command line to generate further detail.  These additional points are being stored within the same array.

Quite simple, but we have the chose of very few products on the market, and they are all proorietary.

Once the routines are debugged, I will need pointers on intergrating the routines into LibreCAD code.

Thanks for your time if you read this.  Hoping this all goes somewhere.

Sincerely,
Joe O'Connor
