Name        : asymptote
Product     : Fedora 9
Version     : 1.43
Release     : 1.fc9
URL         : http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/
Summary     : Descriptive vector graphics language
Description :
Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for technical
drawings, 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.

Update Information:

Update to 1.43.   A new array(n, value) function returns an array consisting of
n copies of value. Conditional drawing of surfaces meshes was implemented.
Vector field support was improved. Graph tick selection without autoscaling was
improved. By default, all 2D axes are drawn below existing objects. An interface
for drawing contours on arbitrary nonoverlapping meshes was added. Optional
support for Jonathan Shewchuk's more robust triangulation routines was added.
The file precision setting can now be  queried. A beep() function was added. The
partialsum function now returns an array of the same length as its argument
(backwards incompatible). Dash offset and font selection bugs were fixed.
Modules to redefine LaTeX named fontsizes for 10pt and 11pt article
documentclasses were added. Problems in asy-mode.el were fixed. A problem with
label alignment was fixed.  The international inch is now used instead of the
U.S. survey inch. The code now compiles cleanly under gcc-4.3.0.
