Other License: 
Package: ePiX
System name: epix
Type: GNU

Description:
ePiX is a command-based utility for creating high-quality, fully scalable, 
mathematically accurate figures in LaTeX. It is coded from scratch in C/C++, 
and is implemented as a static library together with bash scripts that control 
compilation; a user input file is a short C++ program that, when run, generates 
a LaTeX input file in plain text (an eepic file); a script (elaps) is provided 
to convert to eps.

The project home page is:

Other Software Required:
Aside from the runtime use of bash and g++, ePiX has no built-in dependencies.

Other Comments:
The current release (0.8.8) works with gcc-2.95, but users have reported 
problems with gcc-3.2; however, the whole library is being re-designed and 
written (almost from scratch), so these problems will be fixed in the near 
future.
