<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I need to draw an alpha decay as a line from point (N,Z) to point (N-2,Z-2) with N=A-Z<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">To avoid typing all the coordinates, I use a pstricks object and a \pcline in such a way that I have just to give (A,Z) of the atom and get the correct line taking into account the option [] and the arrows {}.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I have added \naput{#3} to add a text on the line.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">%% the following commands work like \pcline with the optional argument [] and arrows {}

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">It works well but I would like to put the text in the same color as linecolor by a command like \naput{\textcolor{\pslinecolor}{#3}} but of course this is too simple to work. Is there a way to transform \pslinecolor
in something that can be uses by \textcolor or should I do it directly at the postcscript level.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
