"Stripboard Magic" program?

Dec 24, 2004 2 Replies

Several years ago I downloaded a handy freeware program called "Stripboard Magic".



After you edited in your cicuit, it would produce a graphical illustration of optimal component layout and links for standard "stripboard" (Veroboard).



I heard the supplier is no longer active. Can anyone tell me where I can find a copy to download, etc., or perhaps zip one to me?

I read in sci.electronics.design that Roger Lascelles wrote (in ) about '"Stripboard Magic" program?', on Fri, 24 Dec 2004:

Agreed entirely.

I will try it out ASAP, and TinyCAD as well.

Stripboard Magic can still be found via Google - for example :

I found Stripboard Magic so useless that I wrote my own stripboard layout program, called VCAD.

VCAD lets you simply place components, or you can import a netlist from Protel or TinyCAD etc and do a full connectivity checked layout.

Its freeware - I use it a lot - and development continues.
