I have uploaded pst-slpe.tgz to the UK mirror. Please replace all files with the ones in /graphics/pstricks/pst-slpe/

PSTricks contains the pst-grad package, which provides a gradient fill style for arbitrary shapes but it has some deficiencies. pst-slpe instead has some more features:

1. permitts the user to specify an arbitrary number of colours, along with the points at which these are to be reached.
2. conversion between RGB and HSV is done behind the scene.
3. provides concentric and radial gradients.
4. with version 1.1 pst-slpe uses the xkeyval package for the extended key handling.

i've installed the new files as requested, and updated the catalogue.

thanks for the upload.
