Not to distract from the main topic, but aren't such graphical
drawing operations better left to pic?  Pic is ``easy'' enough,
and it can be even more so with good documentation (not
that the current documentation is not good).  Even
Word-Processors have separate drawing modules different
from the ``regular'' writing ones.
