.SH Description

.I latexdraw 
is a X-Window based and CAD orientated drawing program which generates 
LaTeX output using
the macropackage latexdraw.sty. The macropackage latexdraw.sty is
based on pstricks. The picture may be generated as complete LaTeX-source 
or as a picture-environment to be included in other documents. You must 
translate the dvi-file generated by LaTeX to a postscript-file using dvips 
before you can view or print the document.
