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.

62 <p class="noindent">Sets the output language generated by <code>sketch</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
71 <code>latex</code>
72 <a name="index-latex-401"></a>or
73 <code>context</code>
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>.
