CTAN update: asymptote
Date: May 13, 2015 5:48:05 AM CEST
John Bowman and Andy Hammerlindl submitted an update to the
asymptote
package.
Version number: 2.33
License type: lgpl
Summary description: 2D and 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language.
Announcement text:
A work around was implemented for the missing epswrite driver in ghostscript-9.15. Deconstruction is now always done in the C locale. A work around for a unit change in dvisvgm-1.5.3 was implemented. The path arc(pair B, pair A, pair C, real r) function was fixed. The handling of the boolean condition in parametric surfaces was fixed. The default meshlight was changed to nolight so that mesh lines with positive width appear consistent with the default mesh lines. A nonsquare image dimension error was fixed. The definition of the SimpleHead arrowhead was fixed. The zoom/menu button and play option were fixed. An intersect(path, surface) function was implemented. A smoothcontour3 module written by Charles Staats and leminiscate example were added. The inline asymptote.sty option now works with xelatex. An obsolete workaround for an Adobe Reader transparency artifact was removed. An asylatexdir option was added to support the pdflatex -output-directory option. An aligndi! r option for aligning the picture to an arbitrary point of the page boundary was added. The garbage collector was updated to gc-7.4.2. The documentation was updated.

asymptote – 2D and 3D TeX-Aware Vector Graphics Language
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.
