svg2pes
A program which converts SVG to PES (a commonly used file format for embroidery machines from Brother and others). This project's goal is to be able to author embroidery designs with Inkscape.
It is something like the opposite of pesconvert.
This is work in progress.

- a C++14 compiler (GCC 5+ or clang)
