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

  60 </pre>
  61    <p class="noindent">This command is the three-dimensional equivalent of the
  62 <code>PSTricks</code> command <code>\pspolygon</code>.  The <code>sketch</code> hidden
  63 surface algorithm assumes that polygons are convex and planar.
  64 <a name="index-polygon_002c-planar-271"></a><a name="index-planarity-of-polygons-272"></a>In practice, drawings may well turn out correctly even if these
  65 assumptions are violated.
