Thanks to all who made some suggestions about where I can find
Metapost libraries. Will look into those.

It seems Asymptote + Tikz  is a good way to go and also try out Metapost again.

Mojca, you  said that number of pstricks users are decreasing. Is this
amongst Context users, or in general amongst all users who use
pstricks. If the overall number of users is decreasing then perhaps I
don't want to spend time learning it as it won't have new features in
the future. I don't like its syntax, though it can do neat things.
Asymptote syntax is really good.

Thanks again.
