Scribble

Scribble is a vector illustration program similar to Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW

Features

Opens and saves in an SVG-based XML format
Draw and edit Bézier curves (a.k.a quadratic curves)
A document can viewed in multiple windows. Each window can have a different object selected.
Preferences (palette position, window size, etc...)
Each GUI component is built upon a platform-independent model. The GUI can largely be tested from the unit tests and porting to a different UI toolkit (i.e. SWT) will be relatively easy.

Download

scribble.jar (about 1 MB)

Requires Java Runtime 1.4 or later.
Once the download is finished you should be able to launch by double-clicking it.

If that does not work you can launch it from the command line:

Open the command line window:
Windows: click Start > Run..., type cmd then click OK
Max OS X: Applications > Utilities > Terminal
type java -jar (end with a space but don't press Enter yet)
drag scribble.jar to the command line window. This will write the path to scribble.jar in the window.
Now you can press Enter
