In GIMP Pain ting with hard edged pixels [3 tools to the right of T in the
toolbox] seems to make an effect a bit like charcoal.

That's an interesting question.

I have both programs. In INkscape I think that the calligraphic tool,
especially with the effects tool if it can change line thickness or
roughness, is the best I can find. I will have a look at GIMP.

Does anybody know how to draw with a 'charcoal stick' in The Gimp or 
Inkscape.  Or can anyone recommend a (preferably open-source or 
freeware) graphics program that can emulate a charcoal stick drawing 
on a rough paper.  A vector graphics program is preferred but a paint 
program is okay.

Regards,
Hedley
