\section{Shape: Circle Arrow}
\begin{pgflibrary}{ext.shapes.circlearrow}
  A circular shape named |circle arrow| that has an arc as its background path that can have an arrow tip.
  \inspiration{ShapeCircleArrow-Q}{ShapeCircleArrow-A}
\end{pgflibrary}
\begin{shape}{circle arrow}
  This shape is an arrow whose path is an arc -- defined very similar to the |arc|%
  \indexPathOperationO{arc} path operation -- that can possibly be customized with
  arrow tips.
  
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow start angle=\meta{start angle} (initially \{\})}
  Sets the start angle.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow end angle=\meta{end angle} (initially \{\})}
  Sets the end angle.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow delta angle=\meta{delta angle} (initially \{\})}
  Sets the delta angle.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow arrows=%
    \meta{start arrow tip specification}-\meta{end arrow tip specification} (initially -)}
  The specification will be forwarded to |\pgfsetarrows|\indexCommandO{\pgfsetarrows}.
  \end{key}
  
  A few handful styles are pre-defined.
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn left north}
  Sets |circle arrow start angle = 100|, |circle arrow delta angle = 340|
  and |circle arrow arrows = ->|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn left east}
  As above but |circle arrow start angle = 10|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn left west}
  As above but |circle arrow start angle = 280|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn left south}
  As above but |circle arrow start angle = 190|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn right north}
  Sets |circle arrow start angle = 100|, |circle arrow delta angle = 340|
  and |circle arrow arrows = <-|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn right east}
  As above but |circle arrow start angle = 10|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn right west}
  As above but |circle arrow start angle = 280|.
  \end{key}
  \begin{key}{/pgf/circle arrow turn right south}
  As above but |circle arrow start angle = 190|.
  \end{key}
