[Tugindia] PStricks

[David Kastrup]

There is little sense into reverting a subject of interest to private
Email from the list.  In particular if you have configured your mail
system to bounce messages sent to you.  So back to the list:

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

  prabirgd@icmam.tn.nic.in
    SMTP error from remote mailer after MAIL FROM:<David.Kastrup@t-online.de> SIZE=3424:

PStricks comes with documentation.  There is a site devoted to it at
<URL:http://www.tug.org/applications/PSTricks/>, too.

One thing to be noted is that the documentation has been left in a
state of incompleteness: there are two volumes of "beta"
documentation documenting new features, and there are 4 volumes of
"obsolete" documentation documenting features that existed before
that.  Those documentations have never been merged, so this is a bit
inconvenient.

As I said: pictex documentation is proprietary.  The manual must be
bought, and I don't even know whether it is still in print.
