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.
