CADCraft 
 Computer-aided design and drafting; an open-source, modern 2D and 3D CAD application, built in pure Rust. 
 A fast, open-source CAD workflow: the command line, object snaps, layers,
 dimensions, hatches, blocks and DXF drawings you already know. It runs natively on macOS,
 Windows, Linux and FreeBSD, and in the browser via WebAssembly. 
 By the ArtCraft team.

## Why CADCraft
- **The workflow you know.** Type `L`, click two points, type `@5 cargo build --release`) also embed its
fonts: BIZ UDPGothic, BIZ UDMincho and Shippori Mincho (Japanese) and Noto Sans Arabic (the web
build, which has no system fonts, only BIZ UDPGothic Regular and Noto Sans Arabic). A text style
can use them by family name, and they draw characters a text's font lacks when no installed
wide-coverage CJK font has them. Without `CRAFT_FONTS_DIR` nothing is embedded. SHX
fonts (including big fonts such as `chineset.shx`) aren't read yet: text in an SHX style is drawn
with our own stroke font, and any character a text's font lacks (CJK, for example) is drawn from
an installed font that has it, preferring wide-coverage fonts such as Noto Sans CJK, Source Han
Sans, WenQuanYi, PingFang or Microsoft JhengHei. Two settings, set with `SETVAR` or (for every
run) an environment variable, steer this:
| Variable | Environment | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| `FONTALT` | `CADCRAFT_FONTALT` | Font used instead of a text style font that can't be found (an SHX file, a missing TTF), by file or family name, e.g. `Noto Sans CJK TC`. Empty (default) = our stroke font. |
| `FONTFALLBACK` | `CADCRAFT_FONTFALLBACK` | Fonts tried first for characters a text's font lacks, comma-separated, e.g. `Noto Sans CJK TC, msjh.ttc`. |
`.` clears either one.
**Your own fonts.** Any `.ttf`, `.otf` or `.ttc` font works: install it in the system font folder
(Windows `C:\Windows\Fonts` or per-user fonts, macOS `/Library/Fonts` or `~/Library/Fonts`,
Linux and the BSDs `/usr/share/fonts`, `/usr/local/share/fonts`, `~/.local/share/fonts` or
`~/.fonts`) and
