I love how specific yet comprehensive this package is. The manual appears to be lovingly crafted and from what I can tell, well written [1].

I don't know how many people are specifically looking to draw CAD diagrams of steam locomotives, but I absolutely love that this was someone's itch to scratch and they put so much time into this.

Are there any screenshots? I couldn't find them myself. The sample output is extraordinarily well-crafted. Sometimes I think I'd love to write a traditional desktop app like this as a side project. I haven't done it for years.

Here is one screenshot from 2018.[0]
