This PStricks package covers all the colour gradient functionality of
pst-grad (part of the base pstricks distribution), and provides the
following facilities: - it permits the user to specify an arbitrary
number of colours, along with the points at which they are to be
reached; - it converts between RGB and HSV behind the scenes; - it
provides concentric and radial gradients; - it provides a command
\psBall that generates bullets with a three-dimensional appearance; and
- uses the xkeyval package for the extended key handling.
This PSTricks package provides a really rather simple command
\PstPolygon that will draw various regular and non-regular polygons
(according to command parameters); various shortcuts to commonly-used
polygons are provided, as well as a command \pspolygonbox that frames
text with a polygon. The package uses the xkeyval package for argument
decoding.
pst-osci is a PSTricks package enables you to produce oscilloscope
"screen shots". Three channels can be used to represent the most common
signals (damped or not): namely sinusoidal, rectangular, triangular,
dog's tooth (left and right oriented). The third channel allows you to
add, to subtract or to multiply the two other signals. Lissajous
diagrams (XY-mode) can also be obtained.
PostScript lacks a lot of basic operators such as tan, acos, asin, cosh,
sinh, tanh, acosh, asinh, atanh, exp (with e base). Also (oddly) cos and
sin use arguments in degrees. Pst-math provides all those operators in a
header file pst-math.pro with wrappers pst-math.sty and pst-math.tex. In
addition, sinc, gauss, gammaln and bessel are implemented (only
partially for the latter). pst-math is designed essentially to work with
pst- plot but can be used in whatever PS code (such as pstricks
SpecialCoor "!", which is useful for placing labels). The package also
provides a routine SIMPSON for numerical integration and a solver of
linear equation systems.
This PSTricks package provides a really rather simple command \PstLens
that will draw a lens. Command parameters provide a remarkable range of
effects.
Pst-grad is a PSTricks based package for filling with colour gradients.
Supported are colours in the RGB, CMYK or HSB models. Other colour
gradient mechanisms are to be found in package pst-slpe.
Pst-eps is a PSTricks-based package for exporting PSTricks images 'on
the fly' to encapsulated PostScript (EPS) image files, which can then be
read into a document in the usual way.
Pst-circ is a package built using PSTricks and in particular pst-node.
It can easily draw current 2-terminal devices and some 3- and 4-terminal
devices used in electronic or electric theory. The package's macros are
designed with a view to 'logical' representation of circuits, as far as
possible, so as to relieve the user of purely graphical considerations
when expressing a circuit.
A package using PSTricks to draw a large variety of graphs and plots,
including 3D maths functions. Data can be read from external data files,
making this package a generic tool for graphing within TeX/LaTeX,
without the need for external tools.
The package enables the user to connect information, and to place
labels, without knowing (in advance) the actual positions of the items
to be connected, or where the connecting line should go. The macros are
useful for making graphs and trees, mathematical diagrams, linguistic
syntax diagrams, and so on. The package contents were previously
distributed as a part of the pstricks base distribution.
Pst-2dplot is a pstricks package that offers an easy-to-use and
intuitive tool for plotting 2-d curves. It defines an environment with
commands similar to MATLAB for plotting.
An extensive collection of macros for generating PostScript that is
usable with most TeX macro formats, including Plain TeX, LaTeX, AMS-TeX,
and AMS-LaTeX. Included are macros for colour, graphics, pie charts,
rotation, trees and overlays. It has many special features, including a
wide variety of graphics (picture drawing) macros, with a flexible
interface and with colour support. There are macros for colouring or
shading the cells of tables. The package pstricks-add contains bug-fixes
and additions for pstricks (among other things). PSTricks uses
PostScript \special commands, which are not supported by PDF(La)TeX.
This limitation may be overcome by using either the pst-pdf or the
pdftricks package, to generate a PDF inclusion from a PSTricks diagram.
