CTAN Update: asymptote
Date: July 20, 2009 2:17:34 PM CEST
On Mon, 20 Jul 2009, John Bowman submitted an update to the
asymptote
package.
Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for technical
drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like syntax. Asymptote
provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting that LaTeX does
for scientific text.
Version number: 1.82
Location on CTAN: /graphics/asymptote/
Summary description: 2D & 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language
License type: lgpl
Announcement text:
Threaded exports were fixed. The texpath fontsize was fixed for PDF tex engines. A default currentprojection argument was added to transform3(projection). The -gray and -bw settings are now respected in PRC output. A consistent approximation is now used for drawing tube centers. Missing pt units were added to all fontsize examples.
This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/asymptote/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/info/?id=asymptote (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
