Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mfpic is a package of (La)TeX macros that produce drawings by writing a
Metafont/post file. This is a fairly major upgrade adding facilities to
create MF loops, to create picture variables and place copies of them,
and to read results of an MF expression into a TeX macro. Also 7 new
curve creation macros, one new curve modifier and one new rendering macro
(double-line) have been added. Plus new options for \arc, \circle and \arrow.
