In response to several requests I have produced a Gradian version of FreeCOGO.
FreeCOGO Europa is a free co-ordinate geometry program for the graphical solution of surveying computations targeting student surveyors and civil engineers.
I would be pleased if you would try the program and provide feedback with suggestions.

Thanks to Marco Giada for his assistance.
For a description of the program search this category for FreeCOGO (the DMS version).

Hi Barry,
I'll have a look at it,
thanks for sharing!
Chr.
FYI
it does run on Linux using wine
Linux is case sensitive and has a hard time finding the .tkn file
I changed the extension to UPPER CASE (.TKN)
and created a bash script to start the program
****bash*****
#!/bin/sh
wine FreeCOGO_Europa.exe FreeCOGO_Europa.TKN
I will test it more later.
and thanks ( Nice Job )

Thanks for the tip Dave.
I'm not familiar with Linux.
Does this mean that all files used or input/output in FreeCOGO_Europa need to have Upper Case extensions?
(ie. .txt .dat .bak .dxf .hmtl .dll .csv files)
or does this only apply to the program token file on startup?
Regards
Barry Graham
it appears to only need it to start up.
I have written other programs with justbasic / libertybasic
in the past and changing the extension always seem to work.
There is an open source Linux GLBCC on source forge.
that should compile the source code for native Linux. I have never used it because wine
would handle the small programs that I made.
