Bug Description

It would be great if inkscape could export/import custom shapes (.csh). I tried to find any software and only Adobe Photoshop can save files in this format. The format seems to be easy, because stores only shapes or shapes library.

sample .csh file Edit (252.9 KiB, text/x-csh)

I addded a free .csh file as a sample. I think it can be useful. When I examined the file I could see a shape name some seperator a uuid then some garbled data probably some encoded adobe vector definitions.

A specification of the format would be ideal. I searched on google for a little and I didn't find any information about the internals of this format. If someone has some idea, please reply.
