Re: Math Diagrams in ConTeXt

[Matthias Weber <matweber@indiana.edu>]

Thanks -- while it looks really nice, I do need diagonal arrows.

However, after some experimenting, I catually managed to get DCpic to 
work. It is just a plain TeX file,
I was only scared by the .sty name.

If somebody else runs into the same problem, here is a short example, 
for reference. You will need dcpic.sty in  your path first. Then
one can create diagrams as follows:

\usemodule[pictexwd]
\input dcpic.sty

\starttext

\begindc{\commdiag}
\obj(1,2){$V_i$}
\obj(3,1){$V'$}
\obj(3,3){$V$}
\mor{$V_i$}{$V$}{$f_i$}
\mor{$V_i$}{$V'$}{$f_i'$}[-1,0]
\mor{$V$}{$V'$}{$f$}
\enddc


\stoptext
