tpic2pdftex - convert tpic \specials for use by pdftex

Bugs

       Spline  curve  shapes  not  fully  authentic  (unknown  algorithm).   Bounding box does not care for line
       thickness (groff pic feature).  Splines might  be  outside  bounding  box.   Fill  color  does  not  work
       correctly for arrowheads (pic limitation).

Description

       Experimental  awk  script  for  conversion  of  tpic  \specials  as  produced  by (groff-)pic into pdfTeX
       \pdfliteral sections for further processing by pdftex.
