Short description:
TeXCAD is a program for drawing or retouching {picture}s in
LaTeX.
It operates on plain LaTeX {picture}s (thus, requires no
add-on, and is displayed on all devices), but extends largely
the original {picture} capabilities.
You also enjoy the same fonts, macros, formulas as elsewhere
in your LaTeX document.
Furthermore, you can still switch on some supported add-ons (classes
or style sheets), but are not obliged to.
