DESCRIPTION Draws curves in the LaTeX 2e picture environment using parabolic arcs between data points with continuous slope at joins. For circles and circular arcs uses up to 16 parabolic arcs. Also draws symbols or dash patterns along curves. A straight side switch changes curves to polygons. Extends picture capability without extra programs and data files. Parabolic arcs consist of short chords drawn by overlapping disks or line drawing `\special's selected by package options.
