------------------------------------------------------------------------ The pst-optexp package --- Drawing optical experimental setups Maintained by Christoph Bersch E-mail: usenet@bersch.net Released under the LaTeX Project Public License v1.3c or later See http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The package pst-optexp is a collection of optical components that facilitate easy sketching of optical experimental setups. A lot of different free-ray and fiber components are provided, which alignment, positioning and labelling can be achieved in very simple and flexible ways. The components can be connected with fibers or beams, realistic raytraced beam paths are also possible. Installation ------------ The package is supplied in dtx format and as a pre-extracted zip file, pst-optexp.tds.zip. The later is most convenient for most users: simply unzip this in your local texmf directory and run texhash to update the database of file locations. The pst-optexp package is also contained in MiKTeX and TeX Live distributions. If you want to unpack the dtx yourself you must run "tex pst-optexp.ins", to typeset the documentation run "latex pst-optexp.dtx". The package requires recent version of pst-node, multido, pstricks-add, pst-eucl, and environ.
