Yeah. But they're big nonetheless. I just did a quick scan of the dia distfile and dependency list Port Distfile size -------------------------------------------------------------- graphics/dia 959,231 x11-toolkits/gtk12 2,851,547 devel/glib12 410,754 devel/libtool 535,519 devel/gettext 713,694 textproc/libxml 890,447 graphics/imlib 696,347 graphics/png 403,297 graphics/tiff 900,890 graphics/jpeg 613,261 graphics/libungif 301,291 -------------------------------------------------------------- 9,276,278 (I haven't double checked this figure, but it looks about right). OK, so packages will be smaller, but whichever way you cut it that's still a lot of data to transfer. > Dia is still wildly instable and I am debugging it [CVS version] to get > it more stable every day.

I'd like a dia2eps tool please, preferable weighing in at less than a megabyte, including the dependencies -- I realise that you'll need libxml. . . . . . by the end of the week if possible. :-) N -- Internet connection, $19.95 a month.
