- I've used tgif and found it to be very good indeed. Its flexible, has
- a reasonable interface and with a little work you can do things like
- read in postscript images and draw over them and stuff (you do need
- ghostscript to do this though). The only drawback is the lack of a
- decent rotate option. Angles of multiples of 90 only are allowed. This
- aside it is a very useful package to have around.
