\section{\texttt{pstricks-pdf.sty}}
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This package allows to use pstricks code with \Lprog{pdflatex} or \Lprog{lualatex}.
All optional arguments of package \LPack{auto-pst-pdf} are possible. In difference to
this package \LPack{pstricks-pdf} has no problems with running \Lprog{lualatex}.
Internally \Lprog{lualatex} starts \Lprog{xelatex} for creating the environments
\Lenv{pspicture} as single images.

\section{\texttt{pstricks.tex} (v. 2.74 -- 2017/06/15)}
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\subsection{Error message}
Using PSTricks with \Lprog{pdflatex} will work only when using package
\LPack{auto-pst-pdf} and running the \TeX-file with
\begin{verbatim}
pdflatex -shell-escape <file>
\end{verbatim}
otherwise you'll get an error message which was misleading in the past:
\begin{verbatim}
[...]
! Undefined control sequence.
<recently read> \c@lor@to@ps
\end{verbatim}
This changes now to
\begin{verbatim}
[...]
! Undefined control sequence.
\c@lor@to@ps ->\PSTricks
_Not_Configured_For_This_Format
\end{verbatim}
\subsection{Random colors}
There are now four predefined random ''colors``:
\begin{verbatim}
\definecolor[ps]{randomgray}{gray}{Rand}%
\definecolor[ps]{randomrgb}{rgb}{Rand Rand Rand}%
\definecolor[ps]{randomcmyk}{cmyk}{Rand Rand Rand Rand}%
\definecolor[ps]{randomhsb}{hsb}{Rand Rand Rand}%
\end{verbatim}
\begin{LTXexample}[pos=t]
\begin{pspicture}(10,5)
\multido{\rA=0.0+0.1}{50}{\psline[linecolor=randomgray,linewidth=1mm](0,\rA)(10,\rA)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{LTXexample}
\begin{LTXexample}[pos=t]
\begin{pspicture}(10,5)
\multido{\rA=0.0+0.1}{50}{\psline[linecolor=randomrgb,linewidth=1mm](0,\rA)(10,\rA)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{LTXexample}
\begin{LTXexample}[pos=t]
\begin{pspicture}(10,5)
\multido{\rA=0.0+0.1}{50}{\psline[linecolor=randomcmyk,linewidth=1mm](0,\rA)(10,\rA)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{LTXexample}
\begin{LTXexample}[pos=t]
\begin{pspicture}(10,5)
\multido{\rA=0.0+0.1}{50}{\psline[linecolor=randomhsb,linewidth=1mm](0,\rA)(10,\rA)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{LTXexample}
The random counter can be initialized with \verb|\pstVerb{rrand srand}|.
\subsection{refangle}
This version fixes a bug with \verb|pst@refangle| which is used inside PostScript.
\begin{LTXexample}[pos=t]
\begin{pspicture}(-1,-1)(10,3.5)
\psparametricplot[algebraic]{0}{9}{t^2/9 | sin(t)+1}%
\pscurvepoints{0}{9}{(t^2)/9 | sin(t)+1}{P}%
\pspolylineticks[metricInitValue=1,ticksize=-2pt 2pt,Os=1,Ds=.2]{P}{ ds }{1}{56}%
\pspolylineticks[metricInitValue=1,Os=1,Ds=2]{P}{ ds }{0}{6}%
\multido{\iA=1+1,\iB=3+2}{5}{\Put{6pt;(PNormal\iA)}(PTick\iA){\tiny \iB}}
\end{pspicture}
\end{LTXexample}
\begin{sloppypar}
There is a new optional argument \Lkeyword{draft} which has the same meaning as
the one for \Lcs{includegraphics}. The PSTricks image is not drawn, only the
area of the \Lenv{pspicture} coordinates is seen by a rectangle (only for \LaTeX).
\end{sloppypar}
\begin{LTXexample}[pos=t]
\psset{draft}
\begin{pspicture}(-1,-1)(10,3.5)
\psparametricplot[algebraic]{0}{9}{t^2/9 | sin(t)+1}%
\pscurvepoints{0}{9}{(t^2)/9 | sin(t)+1}{P}%
\pspolylineticks[metricInitValue=1,ticksize=-2pt 2pt,Os=1,Ds=.2]{P}{ ds }{1}{56}%
\pspolylineticks[metricInitValue=1,Os=1,Ds=2]{P}{ ds }{0}{6}%
\multido{\iA=1+1,\iB=3+2}{5}{\Put{6pt;(PNormal\iA)}(PTick\iA){\tiny \iB}}
\end{pspicture}
\end{LTXexample}
\subsection{\nxLcs{newpsstyle}}
The command \Lcs{newpsstyle} has a new syntax:
\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{newpsstyle}\OptArg{package name}\Largb{name}\Largb{definitions}
\end{BDef}
For example
\begin{verbatim}
\newpsstyle[pst-shell]{Epiteonium}{D=1,A=9.5,alpha=85.9,beta=9,mu=0,Omega=0,
phi=81,a=2.1,b=1.6,L=1.3,P=-60,W1=200,W2=20,N=8.3}
\end{verbatim}
