'''SVG-like rendering for the canvas'''

Description

Tkpath implements path drawing modelled after SVG. It is very flexible and reproduces all standard drawing canvas items. Features include: opacity, antialiasing, gradient fills, affine transformations, and fill rules. Backends include: CoreGraphics on MacOSX, GDI on Win32, GDI+ on WinXP, Cairo on X11, and Tk drawing as a fallback. Not all backends support all features.

The author has announced version 0.2 of this
package on 16 July 2006. The new version includes
numerous more specialized canvas items sharing the
visual traits of the original "path" item and also includes
radial patterned gradients. No new release
files are available at this time but cvs holds pre-built
binaries.
