When that file is orrectly processed by Metafont (or MetaPost), and LaTeX or TeX is run again, the result is a figure in the TeX document at the location of each environment. The main new features are more flexible arrow creation macros and a few new path rendering commands: zigzag, sinewave and coil. There has also been an internal reorganization to make the code a little more efficient. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- See this package at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/graphics/mfpic/ .
