Язык DROL как средство расширения графических возможностей системы LATEX

Abstract

The paper introduces an implementation of the geometrical specification language DROL originally designed to describe geometric structures and to write algorithms solving geometric problems on a plane. DROL can be also used to create banks of standard figures for courses, presentations and publications. The preprocessor DROL2TeX transforms DROL program into a set of commands of the graphics package TikZ. The result is the desired figure. We use examples to demonstrate extensions to the graphical capabilities of LATEX.
