<#454#>

This document describes some new commands for the picture environment of L^ATEX. Some of the picture drawing commands of L^ATEX are very low-level. New higher-level commands are implemented and described here. These commands enhance the graphic capabilities of L^ATEX and provide a friendlier and more powerful user interface than currently existent. Their implementation has been done with the aim of reducing the amount of manual calculations required to specify the layout of <#32#>objects<#32#>. With the addition of the commands described in this document, it should be possible to draw more sophisticated pictures with lesser effort than was previously possible.
