14 This manual is for `sketch', version 0.2 (build 161),
15 Tuesday, September 08, 2009, a program that converts descriptions of simple
16 three-dimensional scenes into static drawings. This version generates
17 `PSTricks' or `PGF/TikZ' code suitable for use with the
18 TeX document processing system.

</code>.
63 <a name=
"index-pstricks-399"></a><a name=
"index-tikz-400"></a>The set of options understood by sketch also changes. For example,
64 the
<code>PSTricks
</code> option
<code>linewidth
</code> will not be properly
65 handled if
<code>language
</code> is set to
<code>tikz
</code>. Similarly, the
66 <code>TikZ
</code> option
<code>line style
</code> (note the space) will not be
67 properly handled if
<code>language
</code> is set to
<code>pstricks
</code>. If no
68 language is specified, the default
<code>pstricks
</code> is used.
70 <p>An optional comma followed by
72 <a name=
"index-latex-401"></a>or
74 <a name=
"index-context-402"></a>specifies the macro package that the output should assume. This
75 affects the
<code>picture
</code> environment commands emitted and the
76 document template used with the
<span class=
"option">-T
</span> option. See
<a href=
"Command-line.html#Command-line">Command line
</a>. Note that at the time this manual was generated,
77 <code>PSTricks
</code> was not supported by LaTeX or by
<code>ConTeXt
</code>.
