Musa CAD is a fast, modern 2D drafting application. It follows AutoCAD's ribbon, command line, prompts and shortcuts, so a drafter's habits carry over, and its multi-threaded, GPU-accelerated core keeps large drawings smooth to pan, zoom and edit. DXF is read and written natively; DWG goes through the free ODA File Converter.
