CaRMetal

CaRMetal is a another version of C.a.R. using the latest Swing techniques. This version has been programmed and maintained by Eric Hakenholz. He has an own web page for his version. CaRMetal is also open source under GPL and free. This is not a replacement for C.a.R., but another version, forking off the classical C.a.R. code. Eric tries to keep up with any changes or extensions in the C.a.R. core code. Files are compatible, of course.

The underlying algorithms are the same, but the GUI behaves quite differently. CaRMetal uses non-modal dialogs, where C.a.R. uses modal dialogs and the right click edit technique. The interface is richer, which also means it is not as clear as the C.a.R. interface. It is certainly a very interesting alternative.

CaRMetal is still not completely providing all functionality of C.a.R., and also the translations in various languages are still missing. However, it is a development to look forward to. Eric is working hard on his program version.

Here is a preview of the user interface of CaRMetal.
