Any chance of a Linux/Windows port in the future? I saw this the last time it hit HN, and have hoped for something like this for other OSes.

- milen 11y agoMonodraw is written in Obj-C against the AppKit framework and we always strive to create the best native experience. This means the app is not portable as it is right now. But with the recent announcement from Microsoft about their support for Obj-C, this might be something that could happen in the future (MS does not yet support AppKit). (Monodraw developer)
- jdboyd 11y agoMight the GNUstep AppKit work for you?
- techdragon 11y agoSerious question: Does it work for anyone ?

- analog31 11y agoLess feature rich, but handy, is a program called aacircuits, for drawing ASCII-art circuit diagrams. It dates way back to the days of Usenet. I still use it to include small schematics in microcontroller source code. For instance if I figure out how to program a particular chip, I include a schematic of a circuit to "demo" the code. I'd be shocked if aacircuits doesn't run under Wine on a Linux machine.
