TpX 1.2 is on CTAN
TpX is a lightweight, easy-to-use graphical editor for Windows platform for
creation of drawings and inclusion them into LaTeX files in publication-ready
form. It can also be used as a stand-alone editor for vector graphics.
The output is a file (with extension .TpX) containing the drawing as LaTeX
code or as an \includegraphics link to an external file created by the
program. User can choose between several output formats. TpX saves its own
data in TeX file comments so that the drawing could be loaded into TpX and
edited again. This internal TpX format is based on XML and could be
understood and edited easily.
TpX can import EMF/WMF pictures created by other Windows applications,
including many applications producing scientific graphs. In most cases
the result is nice, though sometimes imported picture needs some manual
editing. So TpX can be used as a EMF-to-any converter.
