Thanks Phil - A true gentleman.
Works fine
LibreCAD
Version: master
SCM Revision: 2.1.0
Compiler: GNU GCC 4.8.4
Qt Version: 4.8.2
Compiled on: Dec 18 2015
Portions (c) 2011 by R. van Twisk
Program Icons Supplied by
Pablo: LibreCAD Argentine
Splash and Logo supplied by
Diego Daltom Designer

Modules: Align, Read ascii points, Import ESRI Shapefile, List entities, Same properties, Sample plugin
Makes a great difference in that you can have more than one grid snap "on" at a time
That was really slowing things down .
Did not change anything else .

Simply updated quickpet and then chose Librecad .

Offer stands , if I can help with anything just ask.

A while back I had a conflict with Q4 packages and mentioned it here I think .I noticed I downloaded VLC via Quickpet just now and it asks you to install the Q4 packages again.

This time I did not do so and the program seems to run as expected regardless. I'm wondering if the message to download Q4 libraries is necessary and perhaps installs a different, conflicting version?

Hi Phil .
I wondered if you could put gMTP on Quickpet Precise .

I've been downloading source files and trying to compile for days now and it just seems to always need something else .

gMTP is very handy for Android phones versions 4 on to open them up for file saving and transfers etc. I expect it would also be useable on iPhones but don't know anything about that. The camera programs in Puppy often don't work properly for version 4 onwards.

There is a thread on it here
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=91442 but I have not pawed through it yet but I think I got a working pet package from here before.

I have success connecting to iPod, iPad and Android (CyangenMod) using CamPhoneTab 1.5. Would this be a solution?

Another I came across is Viber. A linux alternative to Skype.
It uses QT5 though so I was unable to get it running .
Its encoded end to end so a more secure messaging video app
