[pygtk] libraries for Python isometric cad drawings

[Karl Ostmo]

OpenGL seems like the way to go to create the orthographic projections.  For
printable/SVG output, you could use gluProject and feed your 2D-projected
vertices to Cairo alongside your OpenGL code.

I have used GL2PS <http://www.geuz.org/gl2ps/> before to make vector
drawings from OpenGL, but it is in C.

Good luck!
