Description

In the spirit of Macao from the Pascal area. Programme dans l'esprit de Macao de la rubrique Pascal.

The goal is to make computer assisted drawing with graphic interface and also 'programming' language.

Why ?

  • 1st example: You want to make a curve. With standard software, you have to make the point calculation, draw points and then make a curve fitting on these points. If we can 'program', we just have to tell the software how to make the point calculation and then do the curve fitting on that one.
  • 2nd example : You want to make many smal shapes with differents size. Graphically, we will spend lot of time zooming in , zooming out ... to find the right line to connect. With a programming language, you just have to tell that you want to do line 23 up to line 56 then line 2 ...

You will see that it is unfinished for 2 raisons:

  • my professional job didn't let me enough time to work on so big project.
  • preparing before programming was not enough : the programming language is OK for unlimited building but nothing was prepared for limited building (shape or tool path for example)

In the future, I will restart from scratch.

User interface is in french.
