shapepatch – Transfig patch supporting shapepar

ShapePatch is a patch against Transfig, which adds the capability to export XFig figures to shape definitions for shapepar. Shapepar itself will form a paragraph into a specified shape, and the size of the shape is automatically adjusted so that the given paragraph completely fills the shape. ShapePatch effort: one simply draws the required shape with XFig and then convert it to a shape definition for shapepar, either by calling fig2dev manually or by choosing “Export/Shape” in XFig (if you install the additional XFig patch).
