+PyX is a Python package for the creation of encapsulated PostScript figures.
+It provides both an abstraction of PostScript and a TeX/LaTeX interface.
+Complex tasks like 2d and 3d plots in publication-ready quality are built out
+of these primitives.
+
+Features
+ * PostScript output for device independent, free scalable figures
+ * seamless TeX/LaTeX integration
+ * full access to PostScript features like paths, linestyles, fill patterns,
+ transformations, clipping, etc.
+ * advanced geometric operations on paths like intersections, transformations,
+ splitting, etc.
+ * sophisticated graph generation: modular design, pluggable axes, axes
+ partitioning based on rational number arithmetics, flexible graph styles,
+ etc.
