Hi debian-user, I'm dealing with some auto-generated xfig images which have many thousands of overlapping objects all at the same depth. Were everything at a different depth, it would be easy to select things in groups by controlling what's shown and selecting in regions. How might I select many objects based on some other common attribute (like color)?
The generating program (gnuplot) has some facility for setting depths, but it requires knowing some very Fortrannish 4-digit numbers that I'd rather not clutter my brain with. Xfig files are just text files full of lines of numbers; if there's no GUI way to do this I'm not afraid of, say, an awk script. Please CC to me, as I'm not subscribed to the list. Thanks!
