ABSTRACT
This paper describes a graph-drawing package that has been implemented as an extension to the
MetaPost graphics language. MetaPost has a powerful macro facility for implementing such extensions. There are also some new language features that support the graph macros. Existing features
for generating and manipulating pictures allow the user to do things that would be difficult to achieve
in a stand-alone graph package.
