Branch: pkgsrc-2022Q2, Version: 7.2.7nb18, Package name: ipe-7.2.7nb18, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Ipe is a drawing editor for creating figures in PDF or (encapsulated)
Postscript format. It supports making small figures for inclusion
into LaTeX-documents as well as making multi-page PDF presentations
that can be shown on-line with Acrobat Reader.

Ipe's main features are:

* Entry of text as LaTeX source code. This makes it easy to enter
mathematical expressions, and to reuse the LaTeX-macros of the
main document. In the display text is displayed as it will
appear in the figure.
* Produces pure Postscript/PDF, including the text. Ipe converts
the LaTeX-source to PDF or Postscript when the file is saved.
* It is easy to align objects with respect to each other (for
instance, to place a point on the intersection of two lines,
or to draw a circle through three given points) using various
snapping modes.
* Users can provide ipelets (Ipe plug-ins) to add functionality
to Ipe. This way, Ipe can be extended for each task at hand.
* The text model is based on Unicode, and has been tested with
Korean, Chinese, and Japanese.
