+PSTricks offers excellent macros to insert more or less complex
+graphics into a document. pstricks.tex itself is the base for several
+other additional packages, which are mostly named pst-xxxx,
+like pst-vue3d. There exists several packages for plotting three
+dimensional graphical objects. pst-vue3d is similiar to the
+pst-plot package for two dimensional objects and mathematical functions.

in any place, where latex or any other TeX program will find it.
-Pay attention, that you cannot run the documentation with
-pdflatex, PSTricks is PosTScript Tricks.
-Use latex->dvips->ps2pdf or have a look at

+The pro file should go into $TEXMF$/dvips/pstricks/.
+
+pst-vue3d uses the extended version of the keyval package. So
+be sure that you
+- have installed xkeyval with the special pst-xkey
+ (CTAN: tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/xkeyval/)
+- do not load another package after pst-vue3d, which loads
+ the old keyval.sty or pst-key.tex
+
+
+If you like to get the documentation file in another format run
+
+latex pst-vue3d-doc.tex
+bibtex pst-vue3d.doc
+latex pst-vue3d-doc.tex
+dvips pst-vue3d-doc.dvi
+
+to get a PostScript file. But pay attention, that the pst-vue3d
+files are saved in the above mentioned way, before you run
+latex on the documentation file.
+
+The intermediate DVI file works only with viewers which can
+interprete the embedded PostScript code.
+
+For another PDF output read the Introduction from
+the documentation.
