First off, thank you for releasing 8.03.

My questions are about the library file format and the command line 
interface accessed
at the bottom of the print console. 
Which is more likely to change and how fundamentally, or will they just 
be slowly added onto?

Also, he non-manhattan fix needed a slight modification to work for 
non-fixedAngle arcs (as
I needed) by placing:
 if(!useArc.isFixedAngle()) singleArc = true;
at line 151 in SimpleWirer in order to account for that case
and
if(!useArc.isFixedAngle()) endPoint = clicked;
at line 373 in Interactive Router since I didn't want it to go to a 
vertical or horizontal
route automatically
I also added
if(!startArc.isFixedAngle()) angleIncrement = 0;
at line 508 in Interactive router since the increment 90 check didn't 
account for a null
in the case of non-fixedAngle arcs but that might not be needed.  Just 
thought I'd mention
these changes in case they're needed or if you decide to incorporate 
them since they don't
seem to damage any other functionality.
