[comp.text.tex] New Version of Texcad?

cheewai@spinifex.eecs.unsw.oz (Wai Yeung) (01/26/91)

Is there a later version of "texcad"? My version is V2.7, and has bugs
involving the drawing of vectors (horizontal component of the vectors
are ALWAYS generated in the wrong direction).

By the way, is there any other similar sort of programs available for
PCs?

Thanks in advance.

This bug has been fixed in the TeXcad version that comes with the
25-Sep-90 release of emTeX (ftp: ymir.claremont.edu). There's
an even newer TeXcad version, which supports bezier.sty. This
version is currently only available from the TeXcad author
(see manual).
