ANN: PyScript 0.6.0 released

C

cochrane

Overview:

PyScript is a python module for producing high quality postscript
graphics. Rather than use a GUI to draw a picture, the picture is
programmed using python and the PyScript objects.

Some of the key features are:
* All scripting is done in python, which is a high level, easy to
learn, well developed scripting language.
* All the objects can be translated, scaled, rotated, ... in fact
any affine transformation.
* Plain text is automatically kerned.
* You can place arbitrary LaTeX expressions on your figures.
* You can create your own figure objects, and develop a library of
figure primitives.
* Output is publication quality.
