It's a pretty good idea. I think by default one could have lines angled less than 10 degrees or so from horiz/vertical snap to horizontal/vertical. I'm not keen on "F8", adding shortcuts that are not rational for the average user (who doesn't know CAD software) only messes up usability. Compare also with the existing ortho/snap patch, #2758895, which may be another way to do similar...

From Rankin: One additional option would be great,,,, consider adding an orthographic mode to the line tool! Since most lines drawn are either horizontal or vertical, it would be nice if the line tool would snap to these angles. If one needed to draw a line other than that the "swing" option would still do that. This is almost always an F8 toggle in most cad programs. Or maybe simply...

Ok, you have a point... I can see how it'd be annoying. (I nornally don't change paper sizes much so it hadn't occurred to me). Denis.

Included in 0.4.6, along with a small change for backward compatibility with GTK+ 2.10 (#define GTK_STOCK_DISCARD to mean GTK_STOCK_NO if it is undefined.) Denis.

Fixed in release 0.4.6. I also included -lm (I needed it on Fedora 16); and moved the -lX11 to a place where it wouldn't kick in on the Windows platform, since the Windows port should not be linked against X11. Denis.

Included in 0.4.6 (with additional change: also do this when ENABLE_XINPUT_BUGFIX is disabled, which is the new default). Thanks, Denis.
