This file belongs to the ROEX package.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The directory ROEXSAMP contains this file (0ROEXSAM.DOC) and 14 examples
of using ROEX with the MFTOEPS package.
WARNING: processing some of the files may last a while; in braces are
shown computing times for mf386 (version 2.71 [3c-beta5]) run on 486 Intel PC
with 66MHz clock.
ES-01.MF, ``SQUARE'' (3 seconds):
A trivial example, expanding stroke applied to a square.
ES-02.MF, ``PARALLELOGRAM'' (4 seconds):
Another trivial example: expanding stroke applied
to a parallelogram.
ES-03.MF, ``COGWHEEL'' (7 seconds):
Expanding stroke applied to a somewhat complex object.
RO-01.MF, ``PROPELLER'' (14 seconds):
Removing overlaps applied to a circle and three rectangles;
rectangles are positively oriented, circle is negatively
oriented and has weight |2|.
RO-02.MF, ``ENCIRCLED CROSS 1'' (4 seconds):
Removing overlaps applied to a positively oriented circle
and two negatively oriented rectangles.
RO-03.MF, ``ENCIRCLED CROSS 2'' (4 seconds):
An example very similar to RO-02.MF; removing overlaps applied
to a negatively oriented circle and two positively oriented
rectangles, background colour is set to |1| (default is |0|).
RO-04.MF, ``EOFILL'' (30 seconds):
Removing overlaps performed in two stages; emulates
even-odd filling rule
RO-05.MF, ``GERBERA'' (3 minutes, 51 seconds):
Areas covered a specified number of times are collected
separately using the macro |recombine_edges| (performing
the last step of removing overlaps), and each area is painted
with a different colour, yielding a gerbera-like form.
RO-06.MF, ``EL PALO ALTO TREE'' (57 seconds):
A tough example (see remarks in the code) excerpted from
The \MF{}book, pages 124 thru 126.
RO-07.MF, ``LOGO OF JOURNAL OF ALGORITHMS'' (28 seconds):
Another example excerpted from The \MF{}book,
pages 137 thru 139.
ROES-01.MF, ``SUN'' (55 seconds):
An example making use of both expanding stroke
and removing overlaps.
ROES-02.MF, ``DOORMAT'' (1 minute, 34 seconds):
Another example making use of both expanding stroke
and removing overlaps;
ROES-03.MF, ``OLYMPIC CIRCLES'' (1 minute, 1 second):
Yet another example making use of both expanding
stroke and removing overlaps; it also demonstrates
repositioning of the picture in such a way that the lower
left corner of the bounding box coincides with the origin
of coordinate system.
ROES-04.MF, ``STAR FLOWERS'' (3 minutes, 4 seconds):
An example of removing overlaps of a single
self-intersecting curve; three EPS files are generated.
