editor for shapes ?

[xavier <list dia-list natch dyndns org>]

Hi,

i'd like, maybe like many others,
add new shapes to dia, especially for network diagrams.


following :
http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/diatut/all/all.html#L017


the only way to create shapes is by hand.

i had no luck trying to use sketch icons saved as svg.

the svg seems incompatible :

svg are embedded in the .shape,
with additionnal info (shape name, connexions points...)

with svg: before every svg tag.


with doing a svg with no gradients, simple things,
and saving it as svg with sketch, and adding the 
dia shape headers/footers, i could use it in my diagram.
(using only "path" commands in svg, hand cleaning)


however, it's a pita.
and i have to add connexions points by hand.


is there any way to do that easily ?

thanks.
