This is a collection of diagrams the author has had occasion to produce

- The most simplicity and elegance is achieved by sticking to one pic

This document duplicates a few diagrams from the manual
Circuit\_macros.pdf. There are also a few files in the
examples directory that are not included in this document. To process
{\sl file}.m4, for example, type "make {\sl file}.pdf."
-% Some of the boundaries of what macros and the pic language can do are
