I've never met AspicScript before.  I know that Philip Hazel wrote RISC OS 
software a long time ago.  He is the author of the Perl Compatible Regular 
Expression library which is included in various major programming 
languages these days, including PHP.  He also wrote EXIM which is one of 
the most widely used SMTP mail servers.

I like the way AspicScript allows you to define objects on the drawing and 
arrows linking them, and it is responsible for deciding where the lines 
and arrows will be drawn to link the objects.  That is very useful for 
flow charts and network diagrams.

Thank you for your work on this!
