package.

Location on CTAN: graphics/metapost/contrib/macros/textpath
Summary description: typesetting text along a path with the help of LaTeX
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This MetaPost package provides macros to typeset text
along a free path with the help of LaTeX, thereby preserving
kerning and allowing for 8-bit input (accented characters).

Version 1.6 released on 2007-02-11:
 * Fixed: a problem with multiple root signs and
   textpathCureSqrt=1
 
 * Added: configuration variables
     textpathAutoScale
     textpathDraft
     textpathDebug
   These options, especially textpathAutoScale, were
   introduced to help with automatic document generation.
 * Added: Numeric restrictions are now discussed in the
   manual.
   
 * Changed: Default value of textpathClip is now 0.
