Aspic is a program that generates line art images
from a text description of a picture that contains
commands such as "line", "box", "circle", and
"arc". Aspic's concept is similar to the "pic"
command. Output is either encapsulated PostScript,
or Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). Quite complex
pictures can be constructed from Aspic's
primitives, which include facilities for
positioning text alongside graphics, and the use
of colour.
