CTAN has a new package: MetaPlot

A new package has been installed at tug.ctan.org and it should soon end up at your favorite mirror. Thanks for the upload, Jim Hefferon ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: MetaPlot Author's name: Brooks Moses Location on CTAN: graphics/metaplot Summary description: Plot-manipulation macros for use in Metapost. License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor: - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- MetaPlot is a set of Metapost macros for manipulating pre-generated plots (and similar objects), and formatting them for inclusion in a Metapost figure. The intent is that the plots can be generated by some outside program, in an abstract manner that does not require making decisions about on-page sizing and layout, and then they can be imported into MetaPlot and arranged using the full capabilities of Metapost. Metaplot also includes a very flexible set of macros for generating plot axes, which may be useful in other contexts as well. Presently, MetaPlot is in something of a pre-release beta state; it is quite functional, but the syntax of the commands are still potentially in flux. Bug reports and other suggestions would be most welcome! - - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can have a look at the package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/metaplot although you may get a better network connection by visiting a mirror of CTAN that is near to you; see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/README.mirrors
