CTAN Update: Asymptote
by CTAN Announcements 31 May '12

31 May '12

On Wed, 30 May 2012 John Bowman submitted an update to the asymptote package. License type: lgpl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ticks are no longer autoscaled when the number of major intervals is specified and autoscale is false. Manual tick scaling was fixed. A bug in the palette range was fixed. A division by zero in constructing curved arrows was fixed. A numerical underflow was fixed. A picture bound error was fixed. The current value of currentpen is now always respected in default arguments. A default viewportwidth is no longer imposed for attached images. A routine for computing camera positions was added. The format command is now more consistent with C++ printf formatting. Named arguments can now appear in function calls after rest arguments. The wheel example was improved to support PDF animations. The erase command no longer resets the machine state. Pipes are now used for xasy communication. A new mode parameter to input and output replaces xinput, xoutput, binput, and boutput. The icon directory path for 64-bit MSWindows systems was fixed. Compilation of native CYGWIN binaries is now supported. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/asymptote . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/asymptote (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
