Comment 0 for bug 169749

since .ai drawings were opened on Inkscape by a
script named ill2svg.pl, which is still plenty of
feature lacks, and perl language
is not that excellence in depurability, i started to
code a replacement named ai2svg.py

for now it opens joined pathes, textboxes, etc., but
is still not opening ai1 documents (which ill2svg.pl
also doesn't), as well is providing errors when
opening
documents saved by Adobe Illustrator because some
lines are broken only with cr, and not lf, crlf or
lfcr - i'm now working on this bug
walkaround

the idea of recoding it on python is not only the
better depurability, as well helping more people
would want to help fixing or improving it

for now i'm posting what i'm having ready until now
