Description-en: Facility for Interactive Generation of figures under X11
XFig is a menu-driven tool that allows the user to draw and manipulate objects
interactively in an X window. The resulting pictures can be saved, printed
on postscript printers, or converted to a variety of other formats (e.g. to
allow inclusion in LaTeX documents or web pages) using the transfig program.
.
This package contains the xfig program itself.
.
You should think about installing the transfig package to export the graphics
to several common formats. You should also think about installing xfig-doc,
which contains the documentation and xfig-libs, which contains several clip
art libraries.
