Is it possible to shade a region using the LaTeX picture environment ? Also, does anyone know how to make the symbol for ``section'' ? It looks sort of like this: / \ /\ \/ \ / -- Harold Naparst (415)-548-4652 UUCP {tektronix,dual,sun,ihnp4,decvax}!ucbvax!cartan!naparst New style naparst@cartan.berkeley.edu ARPA | CSNET naparst%cartan@berkeley.edu

RTFM == read the (insert your favorite f curse) manual... the command for the section symbol...as described on page 40 and 157 of the LaTeX manual...is '\S'.... ______________________________________________________________________________ Kenneth J.

for an extended picture environment, which can be used with TeX as well as LaTeX, pick up the file 'pictex.tar' from june.cs.washington.edu in the anonymous FTP directory. It contains the .tex files for a package called 'pictex' which is simply out-standing. Does arbitrary lines, graphs, etc. very nice.

Does arbitrary lines, graphs, etc. very nice. Could someone post this package to the net so that those of us on USENET have access to it? I do not have access to Internet, so I cannot get it via ftp. But I am certain that there are a lot of people in my situation who would like to get this package. Thanks. -- M. A.

I would like to second that. We do not have ftp access either. How about a posting in comp.sources. or could someone email it to me pep%hplb@csnet-relay ..!mcvax!ukc!hplb!pep

Another vote. `Anonymous ftp' may be wonderful if you can do it but...
