+% \begin{abstract}
+% The package \Lpack{ebezier} is an extension of the (old)
+% \Lpack{bezier.sty} which is now part of \LaTeXe. It defines
+% linear and cubic Bernste\u\i{}n polynomials together with some
+% plotting macros for arcs.
+%
+% With the aid of the \Lpack{calc} package also the calculation of
+% square roots and henceforward lengths is supplied.
+% \end{abstract}

+%
+% \section*{Preamble}
+%
+% If you want to draw complicated and/or lots of pictures, you should use
+% \textsc{PostScript} for generating your plots and \Lpack{dvips} to include
+% them in \TeX\ documents. \textsc{PostScript} can plot lines with arbitrary
+% slope and unlimited length and circles with arbitrary radius just by using
+% one command. See also the \LaTeX\ Graphics Companion\cite{T1} for further
+% possibilities. There is also a new package \Lpack{pict2e}\cite{pict2e} a\-vail\-able
+% which is preferrable for PDF and \textsc{PostScript}.
+%
+% This package will support also lines with arbitrary slopes and unlimited
+% length, but each line has to be generated as a sample of points. Each
+% point reduces \TeX's memory and you will very likely have to overcome some
+% \texttt{TeX capacity excxeeded...} messages.
+%
+% Exact circles would involve trigonometric functions or square roots
+% to be evaluated by \TeX.
+% Even with some tricks for reducing the effort of the calculation algorithm
+% there would be hundreds of calculations for each point.\footnote{%
+% To use \TeX\ for complex computations is as satisfactory as using your desk
+% calculator for writing tasks. But if you really want to do it e.g.\ the digits 7353
+% can be read (rotating by $180^0$) as
+% \texttt{ESEL}, the german word for ``donkey''.}
+% But they may be quite
+% well approximated by cubic bezier curves, also supplied in this package
+% (The quality of interpolation is discussed in some detail in the Section
+% \textit{Fitting Arcs}.) In fact, the small circles in the \LaTeX-\texttt{lcircle} fonts
+% are also generated by the same method.
+%
+% For draft papers use all kind of bezier curves with small number of points,
+% just for the final run increase the numbers. \TeX\ memory can be set free
+% again with {\verb+\clearpage+} at the end of complicated pictures. It's
+% also a good idea to have them at an extra page (option \verb+[p]+ for
+% \texttt{figure} environments).
+%
+% For optical constructions the software LaTeXPiX\cite{PiX} may be a starting point.
+% This software supports cubic bezier curves defined in this package or from
+% \Lpack{bez123}\cite{T5}.
+%
+% \section{Mathematical Definitions}
+%
+% A Bernste\u\i{}n polynomial of degree $n-1\: (n\ge 2)$ is defined by
+% $n$ points $z_1, z_2,\ldots,z_n$
+%
+% \[ \mathcal{B}_{n-1} [t] = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} {n-1\choose i}
+% (1-t)^{n-1-i} t^i z_{i+1}\quad t\in[0,1].\footnotemark\]%
+% \footnotetext{There are also
+% variants of this definitions with all coefficients $\equiv 1$.}
+%
+% The points $z_i, \: i\in\lbrace1,\ldots,n\rbrace$, may be considered as
+% real numbers, then $\mathcal{B}$ is really a polynomial in $t$. Or they
+% denote points in a plane, which notation we will use further. In this case
+% both \emph{components} are polynominials and the graph for $\mathcal{B}$
+% is---part of---an algebraic curve.
+%
+% \bigskip
+%
+% All these graphs have in common:
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item The graph is contained in the convex hull of the defining points.
+% \item The graph starts at $z_1$ and stops at $z_n$.
+% \item At the endpoints the tangents coincident with
+% the directions $z_1-z_2$ and $z_{n-1}-z_n$ correspondingly.
+% \end{itemize}
+%
+% For $n=2$ the Bernste\u\i{}n polynomial $\mathcal{B}_1$ reduces to the
+% linear form spanned by $z_1$ and $z_2$. The parametrization in $t$
+%
+% \[ \mathcal{B}_1 [t] =(1-t) z_1 + t z_2=: t[z_1,z_2]\]
+%
+% is also known as \emph{convex coordinates} for the segment
+% $\overline{\formstrut z_1z_2}$.

+%
+%
+% We will not use more complicated polynomials for several reasons:
+%
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item Higher degree polynomials require more operations to calculate
+% just one point of the graph.
+% \item For sketches (and \textbf{not} exact graphs!) cubic splines are
+% sufficient to scope with all kind of different curvature requirements.
+% \item \TeX\ can handle integers up to $2^{28}$, and ``real number'' lengths
+% are transformed to integers (multiples of scaled points: 1\,pt=$2^{16}$ sp) \cite{T2}. To stay
+% within this restricted range even for cubic beziers we have to do calculations
+% in the right order. Changing the order of multiplication and divisions will
+% result very soon in arithmetic overflows. Also multiplication with these pseudo-real
+% numbers is not an associative operation (due to the range limits!).
+% \item The maximum number of arguments for commands in \TeX\ is limited to nine,
+% which is just enough for four points and a number.
+% \end{itemize}
+%
+%

+% \section{The Plotting Macros}
+%
+% \subsection{Simple Beziers}
+%
+% There are two first level plot commands to be used in a
+% \LaTeXe\ \texttt{picture} environment:
+%
+% \begin{verbatim}
+% \lbezier[n](x1,y1)(x2,y2)
+% \cbezier[n](x1,y1)(x2,y2)(x3,y3)(x4,y4)
+% \end{verbatim}
+%
+% The arguments in square brackets are optional! If they are omitted or $n=0$ an adequate number
+% will be calculated (cf. Section 8).
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\qbezier}
+% \verb+\lbezier+ draws line segments from point $(x_1,y_1)$
+% to $(x_2,y_2)$, or more exactly, $n+1$ intermediate points, while
+% \verb+\cbezier+ is an implementation of the cubic variant. Just for
+% completeness let me remind you that the quadratic
+% variant---\verb+\qbezier[n](x1,y1)(x2,y2)(x3,y3)+---is part of \LaTeXe.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\qbeziermax}
+% $n$ is always limited by the number \verb+\qbeziermax+ (=500).
+%
+% You may change \verb+\qbeziermax+ by a command like (it is not a counter!)
+% \verb+\renewcommand{\qbeziermax}{1000}+.
+%
+% \subsubsection{lbezier}
+% \DescribeMacro{\lbezier}
+% \verb+\lbezier+ is straightforward defined as
+% linear polynomial. It produces equally spaced points.
+%
+% \begin{verbatim}
+% ...
+% \put(0,25){\line(1,0){90}}
+% \lbezier[20](0,10)(90,10)
+% \lbezier[200](0,-5)(90,-5)
+% ...
+% \end{verbatim}
+%
+% \begin{figure}[hbt]
+% \begin{center}
+% \begin{picture}(150,30)
+% \put(-20,-15){\framebox(230,50){}}
+% \put(0,25){\line(1,0){90}}
+% \put(95,25){\makebox(100,0){\protect\LaTeXe\ \protect\texttt{line}}}
+% \lbezier[20](0,10)(90,10)
+% \put(95,10){\makebox(100,0){\protect\texttt{lbezier} (21 points)}}
+% \lbezier[200](0,-5)(90,-5)
+% \put(95,-5){\makebox(100,-5){\protect\texttt{lbezier} (201 points)}}
+% \end{picture}
+% \end{center}
+% \caption{Different line commands}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+% Use \verb+\lbezier+ only in cases where the line you want to plot is not within
+% the scope of the \verb+\line+ command, i.e. the slope is not a small rational number
+% and/or the length is too small.
+%
+% \subsubsection{cbezier}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\cbezier}
+% Just like the \verb+\lbezier+ macro \verb+\cbezier+ uses no tricks to generate
+% the third order polynomial. The examples are from the \Metafont\ book
+% (pp. 13)\cite{T3}, where the influence of changing the order of the
+% controlling points ($z_1$ up to $z_4$) is also demonstrated.
+%
+% \begin{verbatim}
+% ...
+% % z1=(0,16) z2=(40,84) z3=(136,96) z4=(250,0)
+% % z12=(20,50) z23=(88,90) z34=(193,48) z123=(54,70)
+% % z234=(140.5,69)
+% \cbezier[400](0,16)(40,84)(136,96)(250,0)
+% \lbezier[30](0,16)(40,84)
+% \lbezier[30](40,84)(136,96)
+% \lbezier[30](136,96)(250,0)
+% \lbezier[30](20,50)(88,90)
+% \lbezier[30](88,90)(193,48)
+% \lbezier[30](54,70)(140.5,69)
+% ...
+% \end{verbatim}
+% \begin{figure}[hbt]
+% \begin{center}
+% \begin{picture}(250,100)
+% \put(-10,-10){\framebox(270,115){}}
+% \cbezier[400](0,16)(40,84)(136,96)(250,0)
+% \lbezier[30](0,16)(40,84)
+% \lbezier[30](40,84)(136,96)
+% \lbezier[30](136,96)(250,0)
+% \lbezier[30](20,50)(88,90)
+% \lbezier[30](88,90)(193,48)
+% \lbezier[30](54,70)(140.5,69)
+% \end{picture}
+% \end{center}
+% \caption{Iteration scheme for one point}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\Cbezier}
+% The variant \verb+\Cbezier+ draws also dots and lines for the controlling points (see
+% Fig.\ 6)\footnote{It resets also the plot symbol to the standard one; cf. Section 7}.
+%
+%
+% \begin{figure}[hbt]

+% \begin{picture}(184,100)
+% \put(-10,-10){\framebox(204,100){}}

+% \Cbezier[200](12,22)(0,0)(43,28)(84,0)
+% \Cbezier[200](100,0)(184,0)(112,22)(143,28)
+% \end{picture}
+% \end{center}
+% \caption{Examples for cubic curves with varying the order of the controlling points}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+% \subsection{Circles and Arcs}
+%
+% All complex plotting commands in this package
+% use a variant of \verb+\cbezier+ as building block. As
+% in the \Metafont\ book circles and arcs may be represented by
+% \verb+\cbezier+.
+%
+% To illustrate the procedure of the macro
+% we do one calculation explicitely.
+%
+% E.g. we want to draw the upper right quarter of a circle with end points $z_1=(0,r)$
+% and $z_4=(r,0)$. $z_2$ and $z_3$ determine the tangents. So we may introduce
+% them as $z_2=(h,r)$ and $z_3=(r,h)$ with a---so far unspecified---parameter
+% $h$.
+%
+% \begin{figure}[hbt]
+% \begin{center}
+% \begin{picture}(50,50)
+% \put(20,10){\line(1,0){30}}
+% \put(20,10){\line(0,1){30}}
+% \put(20,40){\line(1,0){10}}
+% \put(50,10){\line(0,1){10}}
+% \put(30,40){\line(1,-1){20}}
+% \put(20,40){\makebox(0,0){$\bullet$}}
+% \put(50,20){\makebox(0,0){$\bullet$}}
+% \put(30,40){\makebox(0,0){$\bullet$}}
+% \put(50,10){\makebox(0,0){$\bullet$}}
+% \put(5,35){$z_1$}
+% \put(45,0){$z_4$}
+% \put(52,18){$z_3$}
+% \put(25,45){$z_2$}
+% \put(-5,-10){\framebox(70,70){}}
+% \end{picture}
+% \end{center}
+% \caption{Sketch for the geometrical configuration}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+% If we substitute all points in the formula for the Bernste\u\i{}n
+% polynomial for both components, we end at (for $t=1/2$)
+% \[ x[\frac{1}{2}]=y[\frac{1}{2}]=\frac{r}{2}+\frac{3h}{8}\]
+% These values should be $r/\sqrt{2}$ for a circle.
+% So we arrive at
+% \[ h=\frac{4}{3}\left(\sqrt{2}-1\right).\]
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\cArc}
+% \DescribeMacro{\cCircle}
+% The plot commands are:
+% \begin{verbatim}
+% \cArc[n](xm,ym)(x1,y1)
+% \cCircle[n](xm,ym){r}[loc]
+% \end{verbatim}
+%
+% The optional qualifier $n$ determines the number
+% of plotted points (There are as before $n+1$ plotted points for arcs; for circles the
+% number depends on the specifier \textit{loc} and may be $n+1$, $2n+2$, or $4n+4$.).
+%
+% \verb+\cArc+ plots a half circle with centre $(x_m,y_m)$ and $x$-axis through
+% $(x_1,y_1)$ counterclockwise.
+%
+% $r$ is the radius of the circle, specified as decimal constant in terms of
+% \verb+\unitlength+.
+%
+% \verb+\cCircle+ plots full, halves and quarters of circles by specifying
+% \textit{loc} (see the corresponding table).
+%
+% \begin{table}[hbtp]

+%
+% \section{Fitting Arcs}
+%
+% The quality of representating arcs by cubic bezier curves is quite
+% satisfactory. The differences between circles and beziers may be
+% estimated in two ways.
+%
+% \begin{enumerate}
+% \item If we test the overall fit the area enclosed by
+% the curves is a good metric: The area of \texttt{Carc} for the quarter circle
+% is $1/30 (-33+40\sqrt{2})r^2$ to be conferred with $\pi/4\:r^2$. This is an overshot
+% by just 0.028\%!
+% \item The pointwise fit is measured by the radial difference.
+% The maximum is $\cong 0.00025\,r$ (at odd multiples of $\pi/8$),
+% it is zero for all multiples of $\pi/4$.
+% \end{enumerate}
+%
+% \section{Some \TeX{}nical Notes}
+%
+% For the macros therein a lot of counters and lengths have to
+% be declared.\footnote{Although I reuse some internal lengths I had to
+% declare some more to be used in function calls.}
+% Counters represent integer numbers, lengths are
+% ``real'' numbers (actually they are just integer multiples of
+% $1/65536=2^{-16}$). \TeX\ has just a limited number of these
+% stacks and therefore I use the same counters/lengths in all the macros.
+%
+% One cannot store a real number for further use in these internal stacks just a
+% multiplication of a \textit{decimal constant} with a length is possible (counters
+% may be multiplied also with real numbers but just the integer part of the decimal
+% constant is used!)
+%
+% The package \Lpack{calc} introduced in the \LaTeX\ Companion\cite{T4} adds a
+% new possiblity for multiplying lengths with the ratio of two lengths. This feature will be
+% utilized furthermore.
+%
+% \section{Calculating Lengths}
+%
+% If I define lengths with respect to some \verb+\unitlength+ I can now define a
+% product or fraction of two lengths:
+%
+% \verb+\lengthc = \lengtha*\ratio{\lengthb}{\unitlength}+
+%
+% and
+%
+% \verb+\lengthc = \unitlenght*\ratio{\lengtha}{\lengthb}+
+%
+% The dimension of \verb+\lengthc+ \textit{in terms of} \verb+\unitlength+ (!) is the
+% product, or factor respectively, of the two other lengths.
+%
+% With these operations it is even possible to
+% calculate square roots. Simply use the iteration scheme ($m$ integer)
+% \[ \xi_{m+1}=\frac{1}{2}\left( \xi_m + \frac{a}{\xi_m} \right) \]
+% which will converge fast (with accuracy \verb+\eps+=1\,sp) to $\sqrt a$ (starting with
+% $\xi_0=a>0$).
+%
+%
+% Lengths (in a \texttt{picture} environment) are easily calculated too, one just has to
+% care for the upper limits (the maximum length for \TeX\ is roughly 16384\,pt!).

+% \DescribeMacro{\Length}
+% \DescribeMacro{\LenNorm}
+% The macros are:
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item \verb+\LenMult#1#2#3+ and \verb+\LenDiv#1#2#3+ with two input and one output length
+% (\verb+#3+).
+% \item \verb+\AbsLen#1+ which returns the input length as positive length
+% (\TeX\ lengths can be negative!).
+% \item \verb+\LenSqrt#1#2+ returns in the length \verb+#2+ the square root of length \verb+#1+
+% (to say it again: measured in terms of \verb+\unitlength+).
+% \item \verb+\Length(#1,#2)(#3,#4)#5+ stores in \verb+#5+ the length of the line
+% segment between points \verb+(#1,#2)+ and \verb+(#3,#4)+ (coordinates may be decimal
+% constants as in the \texttt{picture} commands).
+% \item \verb+\LenNorm#1#2#3+ returns in \verb+#3+ the length of the hypothenuse of the
+% rectangular triangle with catheti \verb+#1+ and \verb+#2+.
+% \end{itemize}
+%

+% Furthermore you can use these macros to evaluate the length of linear interpolations

+% \verb+\PathLengthC[n](x1,y1)(x2,y2)(x3,y3)(x4,y4)+ respectively. $n$ is the
+% number of interpolation points which is bounded by \verb+\pathmax+=50. The length
+% is stored in the%
+% ---already defined and used---length \verb+\PathLength+. Note: $n$ is \emph{not} optional
+% for these two macros.
+%
+% Example: For the cubic spline\\

+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\cArcs}
+% Finally you can plot an arc (i.e.\ a cubic approximation to the circle arc) between
+% two points with given centre of the circle:\\
+% \verb+\cArcs[n](xm,ym)(x1,y1)(x2,y2)+\\
+% with $n+1$ number of points (limited by
+% \verb+\qbeziermax+ again) and centre $(x_m,y_m)$.

+% \end{picture}
+% \end{center}
+% \caption{Some examples for arcs; the centre is marked by $\bullet$}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+% Limitations:
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item The arc should be smaller than the half of a circle (The limit is
+% handled by \verb+\cArc+ and is built-in again in \verb+\cArcs+.) Otherwise the shape
+% will become ``elliptic'' and ly in the wrong half plane.
+% \item There is no check for consistency if $r_1^2=(x_1-x_m)^2+(y_1-y_m)^2$ and
+% $r_2^2=(x_2-x_m)^2+(y_2-y_m)^2$ are really equal. The graph will contain in any case
+% both points as border points.
+% \end{itemize}
+% I will shortly derive the formulas used in the code. The code is even more tricky
+% due to the fact that I had just a limited number of lengths and the code reuses
+% some lengths explicitely and implicitely by calling routines.

+% \end{center}
+% \caption{Sketch for the geometric situation}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+% We know the coordinates for the points $M$, 1, and 4. The tangents $\overline{43}$ and
+% $\overline{12}$ are normals to the radius in the corresponding points. The distances
+% $\overline{43}$ and $\overline{12}$ should be equal. 5 lies on the symmetry axis (dotted
+% line) with distance $r$ from $M$.
+%
+% \noindent Normal vectors: $\vec n_1=(y_m-y_1,x_1-x_m)$ and $\vec n_2=(y_4-y_m,x_m-x_4)$
+%
+% \noindent Coordinate vectors: $\vec 2 = \vec 1 + \lambda \vec n_1$ and
+% $\vec 3 = \vec 4 + \lambda \vec n_2$ ($\lambda$ is the same because both normal
+% vectors have length $r$)
+%
+% \noindent Furthermore $\vec 5={\cal B}_4 [1/2]$ (the cubic spline
+% should also be symmetric and contain 5)
+%
+% Now we have:
+% \begin{eqnarray}
+% x[ t] & = & (1-t)^3 x_1 + 3 t (1-t)^2 x_2 + 3 t^2 (1-t) x_3 +t^3 x_4\\
+% y[ t] & = & (1-t)^3 y_1 + 3 t (1-t)^2 y_2 + 3 t^2 (1-t) y_3 +t^3 y_4
+% \end{eqnarray}
+%
+% Substituting for $x_2$, $y_2$, $x_3$, and $y_3$ and $t\to1/2$:
+% \begin{eqnarray}
+% x_5=x\left[ \frac{1}{2}\right] & = & \frac{1}{2}
+% (x_1 +x_4) + \frac{3}{8} \lambda(y_4-y_1) \\
+% y_5=y\left[ \frac{1}{2}\right] & = & \frac{1}{2}
+% (y_1 +y_4) + \frac{3}{8} \lambda(x_1-x_4 )
+% \end{eqnarray}
+%
+% We could now calculate the norm of this point and set it equal to the radius $r^2=
+% (x_m-x_1)^2+(y_m-y_1)^2$. This gives a quadratic equation for
+% $\lambda$. But the result is a rather complex term with respect to our input parameters.
+%
+% A nicer term can be found if we define
+% \begin{equation}
+% x_5=x_m+\kappa (x_1+x_4-2x_m) \quad y_5=y_m+\kappa (y_1+y_4-2y_m)
+% \end{equation}
+% with aid of the symmetry vector. $\kappa$ is simply $r$ divided by the norm of the
+% symmetry vector.
+%
+% The resulting $\lambda$ is now (using just the $x$-equation)
+% \begin{equation}
+% \lambda=\frac{4}{3} (-1+2 \kappa)\frac{x_1+x_4-2x_m}{y_4-y_1}
+% \end{equation}
+%
+% Special cases:
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item The symmetry vector is the null vector if $\overline{14}$ is a diameter of the
+% circle. But this case is already solved by \verb+\cArc+.
+% \item For $y_4=y_1$ one needs the equation for the $y$-component, i.e.\ we have as factor
+% $(y_1+y_4-2y_m)/(x_1-x_4)$ in $\lambda$.
+% \end{itemize}
+%
+%
+% \section{Varying the line thickness}
+%
+% There is another package, \Lpack{bez123}\cite{T5}, which introduces also linear and cubic
+% bezier curves, even variants which plot exactly all kind of conic curves (ellipses,
+% parabolas, and hyperbolas). There are two features in \Lpack{bez123}, which I added in the
+% third version of \Lpack{ebezier}:
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\thinlines}
+% \DescribeMacro{\thicklines}
+% \DescribeMacro{\linethickness}
+% \DescribeMacro{\qbeziermax}
+% \begin{enumerate}
+% \item Changing the size of the plot squares by the \LaTeX\ commands\\
+% \verb+\thinlines+, \verb+\thicklines+, and/or \verb+\linethickness+.
+% \item Calulation of an optimal number of plot points if $n$=0 instead of using the
+% maximum \verb+\qbeziermax+ (see next section).
+% \end{enumerate}
+%
+% If you look close to lines you will note some peculiarity. For instance the original
+% \LaTeX\ \verb+\line+ is in horizontal/vertical mode a simple \verb+\ruler+.

+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\DefOldPlotSymbol}
+% \DescribeMacro{\Qbezier}
+% To be consistent with the old version the command \verb+\DefOldPlotSymbol+
+% is supplied which uses the old form. Also a variant \verb+\Qbezier+ for
+% \verb+\qbezier+ is
+% defined which can use the new plot symbol.\footnote{This command is just for convenience.
+% A quadratic bezier can be plotted as cubic bezier as follows. If you want to plot
+% $\backslash$\texttt{qbezier[100](z1)(zm)(z4)} with $(z)=(x,y)$ you may calulate points
+% $z_2=2/3[z_m,z_1]$ and $z_3=2/3[z_m,z_4]$. The cubic bezier $\backslash$%
+% \texttt{cbezier[100](z1)(z2)(z3)(z4)} is exactly the same as the quadratic one!}%
+% \footnote{It can also use the other new symbols defined later.}
+%
+% The next point of consideration is the handling of slanted lines.
+% In the ordinary \LaTeX-\texttt{picture} environment
+% \verb+\linethickness+ has no effect on slanted lines. Now the change applies
+% but a new problem occurs. If you plot a slanted line (slope angle $\varphi$)
+% with squares

+%
+% your line gets effective thicker! The factor of enlargement is $\sin \varphi
+% +\cos \varphi$ which has its maximum $\sqrt 2$ with slope $\varphi_0=45^0$.
+%
+%
+% There are two possiblities to correct the thickness
+% \begin{itemize}
+% \item correct the line thickness of each line or
+% \item use other plot symbols which behave better.
+% \end{itemize}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\Lbezier}
+% The first possibilitiy can be realized just for \verb+\lbezier+ and not
+% \verb+\cbezier+ because the slope changes from point to point in the latter case.
+% The solution is established by internally changing the \verb+\linethickness+
+% by the factor $\ell/(\Delta x+\Delta y)$ where $\ell$ denotes the length of the
+% line ($=\sqrt{\Delta^2 x +\Delta^2 y}$)
+% and $\Delta x$ is the horizontal difference of the the points
+% ($\Delta y$ respectivelly for the vertical difference).
+%
+% To use this line type call \verb+\Lbezier[n](x1,y1)(x2,y2)+.
+%
+% The second chance is to change the plot symbol to a disc. The smallest disk
+% available is the character ``.'' at 5pt. Unfortunately this method will
+% implicitely restrict the \verb+\linethickness+ to some definite values (see the
+% following table for the numbers in question).

+% \DescribeMacro{\DefPlotSymbol}
+% With the aim of the command \verb+\DefPlotSymbol{item}+ you may define any
+% \textit{item} as your plot symbol\footnote{A similar approach with centered
+% symbols can be found in the packages
+% \Lpack{epic}\cite{epic} and PiC\TeX\cite{pictex}.}.
+% It will be centered as the default plot square
+% (otherwise an even larger shift of the $y$-axis would occur). Use explicit font
+% selection with the names supplied in the table to ensure style independence
+% (otherwise e.g.\
+% \verb+\DefPlotSymbol{\tiny .}+ would be different in 10pt and 11pt context).
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\DefShiftedPlotSymbol}
+% This works
+% for all \textit{items} which have a vertical symmetry axis with respect to their
+% defining bounding box (defined by \Metafont) and which ly on the baseline
+% (or beyond if they have some defined depth). It will not work otherwise. For example the
+% circles from the circle font have heigth and depth zero and their reference point is
+% already the centre (i.e. the symbol extends backward). Or consider the ``*''-sign.
+% It does not ly on the baseline. For these cases a generalized command is supplied:\\
+% \verb+\DefShiftedPlotSymbol{item}{x-shift}{y-shift}{height}+.
+%
+% The shifts are applied
+% to the left and downward. The supplied heigth will only have effect if you specify
+% $n=0$ for the number of plotting points.
+%

+% \emph{Caution:} The commands for changing the line thickness have

+% \section{Estimation for the number of plotting points}
+%
+% As mentioned in the last section all plotting macros will calculate the number
+% of plotting points if the value $n=0$ is active. All calculations will
+% use the actual length of the object which can
+% be calculated with the aim of the calculation macros in Section \textit{Calculating Lengths}.
+% For all these calculations \verb+\eps+ is temporarily increased by a factor of 10 and
+% for higher bezier curves just 5 intermediate points will be used. If the calculated number
+% exceeds the specified maximum \verb+\qbeziermax+ an info in the log-file will be generated.
+%
+% All macros for circles and arcs will use a simpler estimate due to their construction
+% by an intrinsic call of the cubic bezier. It uses the length of the chord and
+% the maximal deviation factor $\pi/2$ from the arc length.
+%
+%
+% \section{Joining linear beziers}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\ljoin}
+% A further command has been supplied to ease the drawing of polygon paths. Instead of
+% writing a sequence of \verb+\lbezier+s with common vertices you can write compactly
+% \verb+\ljoin[n](x1,y1)(x2,y2)(x3,y3)...(xm,ym)+
+%
+% Caution: There should be no spaces in the command, so break lines with \% if
+% necessary. There should be at least 2 points. The parameter $n$ is optional, internally
+% \verb-\lbezier[n](xk,yk)(xk+1,yk+1)- will be executed.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\Ljoin}
+% There is also a variant \verb+\Ljoin+ which uses \verb+\Lbezier+.

+% \OnlyDescription
+%
+% \section{Implementation}
+%
+% The macros \verb+\lbezier+ and \verb+\cbezier+ are rather old, they existed since
+% I realized the existence of \Lpack{bezier.sty} more then ten years ago. Therefore
+% the macros are written rather in pure \TeX\ than in \LaTeX. Only the calculation
+% macros demand for \LaTeX\ notation to use the package \Lpack{calc}. But with this
+% version the macros interact more and some \LaTeX\ part occurrs also in the plot macros.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}
+%<*package>
+\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}
+\RequirePackage{calc}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+% I define new font names because \texttt{cmr} may not be the standard font. They
+% may be needed for plotting symbols.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newfont{\vrm}{cmr5}
+\newfont{\virm}{cmr6}
+\newfont{\viirm}{cmr7}
+\newfont{\viiirm}{cmr8}
+\newfont{\ixrm}{cmr9}
+\newfont{\xrm}{cmr10}
+\newfont{\xiirm}{cmr12}
+\newfont{\xviirm}{cmr17}
+\newfont{\xirm}{cmr10 scaled \magstephalf}
+\newfont{\xivrm}{cmr10 scaled \magstep2}
+\newfont{\xxrm}{cmr10 scaled \magstep4}
+\newfont{\xxvrm}{cmr10 scaled \magstep5}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% I need only three new counters,
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcounter{@cnta}\newcounter{@cntb}\newcounter{@cntc}\newcounter{@cntd}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+% but a lot of lengths. Packages like PiC\TeX\ have problems by defining too many
+% lengths, so I try to use as many already defined lengths (defined for usage
+% in a plotting context).
+% \begin{macrocode}
+%% \@TempDim#1#2#3{"count"|"dimen"|"box"|"skip"}{\myname}{\realname}
+%% allocate new one or alias is defined, so use it
+%%
+\def\@TempDim#1#2#3{%

+\@TempDim{dimen}\@Ze\@tempdimc
+%%
+\newlength{\@Zf}\newlength{\@Zg}\newlength{\@Zh}
+\newlength{\@Zi}\newlength{\@Zj}
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% This special length will be used for the circle macros. The magic number is
+% $0.55228474983=4/3 (\sqrt{2}-1)$.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\magicnum}
+\newcommand\set@magic{%
+ \setlength{\magicnum}{0.55228474983\unitlength}}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% Another special one is \verb+\eps+. It could be initialized by \verb+\eps\@ne+
+% but due to its context to the calculation part 1sp=1/65536pt is used.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\eps}
+\setlength{\eps}{1sp}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% The last one is \verb+\PathLength+. It stores lengths which the user may need for
+% further use.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\PathLength}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% This two constants are needed in calculations, but I did not want to waste
+% any additional counter. \verb+\pathmax+ may be redefined to exceed 256, so it
+% is not defined by \verb+\chardef+.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\chardef\x@=10
+\newcommand{\pathmax}{50}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% This fundamental box will keep the plotting symbol.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newsavebox{\@pt}
+%%
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% I have to distinguish three cases: standard plot symbol, old standard plot symbol,
+% or any new one. For this purpose I need two logicals.
+%
+% \begin{macrocode}

+\newif\if@standard@symbol
+% \end{macrocode}
+%
+% All plot symbols may be defined by the most general one,\\
+% \verb+\DefShiftedPlotSymbol+, but this way may be faster. The
+% other important macro is \verb+\set@width+ which redefines the plot
+% box due to changes which may have occurred (line thickness).

+% \verb+\l@put+ is like \verb+\put+ but its arguments are lengths and not

+% lengths as arguments. All complex plotting commands use this form.
