TiKZ and OpenSCAD qualify, but they cover different areas (the one
is for (gorgeous!) diagranms and the other is for (dimensional)
drawings.

Don't let the 'CAD' in OpenSCAD lead you astray: you specify the
drawings in a written language (somewhat reminiscent of C). You get
some help from a viewer and a rudimentary editor.

Cheers
