I'll try to give it a go next week. I'm stuck in an airport, not enjoying myself :-( Terry Hi Jose

Sounds great! I’ll try to give it a go next week. I’m stuck in an airport, not enjoying myself :-(

Sorry for the slow reply. I've used fdp (one of the GraphViz suite) in the past. But I don't see how to use any of the programs to make a Euler diagram. Am I missing something obvious? There's a layout optimization problem, which I suppose GraphViz could help with, but there's also the fact that I want to draw shapes with lots of points in them, with intersections, and that doesn't seem to lend itself to a graph-drawing approach. But maybe I'm wrong? Thanks again, Terry Hi Dan
