Multi-format boardview conversion utility
This little program was initially made only to convert Autodesk EAGLE boards to Toptest boardview format, which can be opened with OpenBoardView or FlexBV. This can be helpful if you need to troubleshoot boards which you designed yourself, as Eagle is not the best tool to actually view the board.
Another supported input format is TVW. The only way to view it is to use Tebo-ICT View software. Old versions can be found on the internet; however, it's not a free software and it looks like there's no easy way to buy it, so it was an interesting challenge to take on. TVW file format was reverse engineered to an extent enough for extracting parts, nets, holes, layers, etc.
