       Otfried Cheong Christian Kapeller

svgtoipe converts a SVG file to an XML file understood by Ipe version 7.

       If  the  output  filename is not specified, it will be derived either by replacing .ipe at the end of the
       input filename with .svg, or by appending .ipe if the input filename does not end with with .svg.

       If either input or output filename is '--', then stdin, resp. stdout is used to read or write data.

       -c     operate in clipboard mode. Data is output as ipe clipboard content.  This allows pasting svg  data
              from  inkscape  to ipe: (1) Copy elements Inkscape to clipboard, (2) run: 'xsel | ./svgtoipe.py -c
              -- | xsel -i', (3) paste clipboard content into ipe.
