Version 2.1.1 of TransFig and Fig are now available for anonymous FTP from

	svax.cs.cornell.edu 	or	sun.soe.clarkson.edu

in directory ~ftp/pub/transfig.  The new versions should be completely
compatible with 2.1.0.  There are some bug fixes, and some improvements to
the LaTeX and PiCTeX drivers which extend the flexibility of those
translations.  For example, variable width lines and shaded boxes 
are now implemented in the PiCTeX translation.  

Keep in mind that the current version of XFig is 2.0, and so cannot read
files written by Fig 2.1.

Please send any comments regarding TransFig to me at the address below.
Comments about Fig should be addressed to Dr. Baron Grey, grey@usc.edu.
