Hi everyone,
    I'm reaching out to see if anyone knows of a standalone SHX file viewer that works reliably outside of full CAD software. I frequently work with AutoCAD shape files and occasionally need to quickly inspect their shapes without launching AutoCAD or loading an entire DWG/DXF file.

thanks

I use SHXviewer, although I can't now locate a download site for it.
Alternative: StarShapes
