  Description     : free DWG file format library

LibreDWG - free implementation of the DWG file format

LibreDWG is a free C library to read and write DWG files. DWG is a file
format created in the 70's for the emerging CAD applications.  Currently
it is the native file format of AutoCAD, a proprietary CAD program
developed by AutoDesk.

At the moment our decoder (i.e. reader) is done, it can read all DWG
versions, just some very advanced R2010+ objects fail to read and are
skipped over. The writer is good enough for R1.4 - R2000.

Among the example applications we wrote using LibreDWG is a reader, a
writer, a rewriter (i.e. saveas), an initial SVG and Postscript
conversion, dxf and json converters, dwggrep to search for text, and
dwglayer to print the list of layers.
