Re: [MiKTeX] MikTex 2.8 and Metapost

[Geoff R. <geo...@ei...>]

Thank you for your reply.

I was about to send this as my minimal example:
---------------------------------------------------------
input graph

beginfig(1);
draw origin--(50,50);
endfig;

\end
---------------------------------------------------------
... but I decided to remove the first line ... and lo and behold ... 
MetaPost is working again ... so ... something *has* definitely changed!

It would appear that the graph.mp macros are now pre-included in 
Metapost ... or is it something else?

I'm happily back to work ... but is there somewhere I can find out 
what OTHER changes have been made to MetaPost?

Many thanks,
Geoff
