Hi!

You may care to look at Vuroute at http://www.vutrax.co.uk . These guys
have a sophisticated router which is very flexible but will not
interface into Allegro, I think. May be worthwhile asking them because
they are a much smaller company than Cadence or Zuken Redac and, as
such, can even do made-to-measure or modified-to-measure software. Their
standard CAD system (Vutrax) is probably the best seller in the UK for
top-end PC (Windows 98/NT) users, very popular with design bureaux
because of its flexibility.
