Xfig is a menu-driven tool that allows the user to draw and manipulate objects
interactively in an X window.  The resulting pictures can be saved, printed
on postscript printers or converted to a variety of other formats (e.g. to
allow inclusion in LaTeX documents).

xfig 3.2.3c is available from ftp://www-epb.lbl.gov/xfig and usually from any CTAN
(Comprehensive TeX Archive Network) site such as ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/tex/ctan/.
See http://math.nmu.edu/Web/TeXArchives/ctansite.html for a long list of CTAN sites.

Be sure to set binary mode when transferring.

Here are the files:

xfig.3.2.3c.full.tar.gz			tar file with everything
xfig.3.2.3c.code_only.tar.gz		tar file with source only
xfig.3.2.3c.docs_only.tar.gz		tar file with docs only (man pages, html)
xfig.3.2.3c.libraries_only.tar.gz	tar file with only Fig Object Libraries

There is also an incremental patch file to convert from 3.2.3b to 3.2.3c.  This
is in the file xfig.3.2.3b.to.3.2.3c.gz.  You must use the 'patch' program to
automatically apply the changes to your 3.2.3b release.  It is compressed so you
must uncompress it first or do "gunzip -d -c transfig.3.2.3b.to.3.2.3c.gz | patch".

You also need to get TransFig version 3.2.3c.  TransFig contains the post-
processor needed by xfig to convert fig files to one of several output formats,
such as PostScript, pic, LaTeX etc.  The TransFig package can always be found
at the same site as xfig.

Please send email about any questions/bug fixes/contributions etc. about
TransFig or xfig to xfig-bugs@epb1.lbl.gov.

	o I18N text handling fixed (bug introduced in 3.2.3b)
	o If a filename with an absolute path was given when starting xfig, it
	  prepended the current path to the path given thus generating a path

	  Fig object
	o Pixmap bits for sm_check_bits should be unsigned in w_util.c
