\title{\texttt{PSTricks -- version 1.11}\\new macros and bugfixes for \texttt{pstricks}}
\author{Herbert Voß\thanks{%
\url{Herbert.Voss@perce.de}}}
\date{\today}

\maketitle

\begin{abstract}
This new version of \texttt{pstricks.tex} depends on the also new prologue file
\texttt{pstricks.pro} (v 1.00), which should go into the local \TeX-directoory \url{$TEXMFLOCAL/dvips/}.
\end{abstract}

\section{New macro names}
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In general \texttt{PSTricks} uses macronames with a preceeding \verb+ps+ to prevent 
clashes with other packages. However, some macros have names without the \verb+ps+ and
these ones have now new names:

\begin{verbatim}
  \scalebox    -> \psscalebox
  \scaleboxto  -> \psscaleboxto
  \rotateleft  -> \psrotateleft
  \rotateright -> \psrotateright
  \rotatedown  -> \psrotatedown
\end{verbatim}

The first change is important, because there were a lot of problems in the past;
\verb+graphicx+ also defines a \verb+scalebox+ but with diffent syntax.

%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\section{New fill options}
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the fillstyles \verb+hlines+, \verb+vlines+ and \verb+crosshatch+ there are two new
options to get increasing line widths and/or increasing whitespace. Both options are 
lengths and can be set as usual for PSTricks, with or without a unit.

\bigskip\noindent
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{lXc}
\emph{name} & \emph{meaning} & \emph{default}\\\hline
\verb|hatchsepinc| & additional increasing space between two hatch lines & 0\tabularnewline
\verb|hatchwidthinc| & value for the increasing line width of two hatch lines & 0
\end{tabularx}

\section{Other changes}
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\texttt{pstricks.tex} defined the PostScript subroutines for arcs of an ellipse.
This code now moved into the appropriate \texttt{pstricks.pro}, which holds the
pure PostScript code of \texttt{PSTricks}. This in not important for user until
the newest \texttt{pstricks.pro} \textbf{and} \texttt{pstricks.tex} are installed.
