# Welcome to libdxf
libdxf is a library (written in C) with DXF related functions.
The Drawing eXchange Format (DXF) is a defacto industry standard for the
exchange of drawing files between various Computer Aided Drafting programs,
designed by Autodesk(TM).
Currently this project has a "Work in progress" status.
The code base is still incomplete and is not debugged to an acceptable level.
My aim for the libdxf-0.0.1 release is to publish a R14 compliant library, and
from that point improve as to be compliant with newer editions of DXF.
You are always welcome to help with patches or bug reports :-)
In the mean time one can always fork the latest code from the Github repository and
help with patches or [bug reports](https://launchpad.net/libdxf)
Kind regards,
Bert Timmerman.
