# Introduction

Sketch is an interactive, object oriented drawing program. This means that the drawing is composed of objects like rectangles, lines or pieces of text. Sketch allows you to manipulate the objects by moving them around, resizing them or changing their color, etc.

This type of program is also called a vector drawing program because it stores the objects internally as coordinates. Apart from Sketch, there are some other (freeware) programs of this type available, such as xfig or tgif.
