In previous issues, I  kept the user experience somewhat spartan which allowed the application to be modified with a mimimum of effort. This time we add points, ellipses, bezier curves and look at a new application class called Control, which allows users to tell the Doodle application what shape they want to draw next.

The previous article introduced the Doodle drawing application. This week, an application framework is added, complete with a document-view architecture. This powerful programming technique separates the document data from the view. By Guyon Roche. 0929

Okay, I&#8217;m sorry. I just had to comment. This was such a fun strip to draw. I&#8217;m going to allow myself to savor how bad-ass it is before I descend into my normal bag of insecurities and start finding all the mistakes.

Asymptote (http://asymptote.sourceforge.net) is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like syntax. Asymptote provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting that LaTeX does for scientific text.    A new picture size routine, which maps specified user coordinates to a given final size, provides a convenient way of forcing the plotted  subregion of a graph to have a fixed size. The correct surface normal is chosen when calculating lighting. The comment character can now be escaped when reading strings from data files (but is disabled when reading raw characters with getc). The new word file mode is useful for reading  white space-delimited strings. PostScript output files are now explicitly designated as EPSF in the header line. The minimum width and height of flowchart blocks may now be controlled separately. Interpolation and knot theory modules were added. The usage of path vs. guide in the base files was  standardized.   https://sourceforge.net/projects/asymptote
