Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This MetaPost package provides macros to typeset text along a free path with the help of LaTeX, thereby preserving kerning and allowing for 8-bit input, e.g., accented characters.
Changes: * Renamed macro textpathVar to textpathFont. * Added macro textpathRaw, that supports typesetting mathematical formulae along a path. * Added configuration variables textpathRepeat, textpathStretch, textpathHSpace, textpathShift, textpathFancyStrokes, textpathStrokePrecision, textpathCureSqrt. * Added more documentation and examples. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
