PicTeX – Picture drawing macros for TeX and LaTeX
PiCTeX is an early, and very comprehensive drawing package, that
mostly draws by placing myriads of small dots to make up pictures.
It has a tendency to run out of space, most especially of
allowable dimensions registers; packages
m-pictex and
pictexwd deal with the register
problem, in different ways.
Note that full documentation may be bought via the
PC-TeX site, though a command
summary is available as free software.
Alternatively, a front-end package such as
mathsPiC, which covers all of
PiCTeX and has a complete and free manual, could be used.
