Drawing perpendicular lines?

[RobA]

Inkscape supports arbitrary guidelines, and can snap to guide intersections. I made a quick video to show how you can set up an arbitrary grid of guidelines in Inkscape to help do what you want:

Looks quite interesting, didn't know inkscape could do that. But, it looks like (I had to skip through the video a bit because my bandwidth sucks) I have to set up the guides for one group of angles, then build all the stuff that fits that angle and then start again on the next set of angles. Is that right?

I think my basic problem is a severe case of dolls house syndrome or whatever you call it. I seem to end up making too many ittle gardens and pathways and stuff like that. And, on more reflection, I don't know if perpendicular/tangental/parallel lines are that critical anyway. A town is a complicated place after all.

I hope I manage to finish this one day...thanks for the help everyone.
