  * Install pst-poly.sty and pst-poly.tex in one of your TeX input directories

  * The documentation is in doc-poly.tex in this directory.
    There are also some test files: t-poly{1,2,3,4}.tex in this directory.

  * This application is interesting because it offer a simple and very
powerful interface to draw various kinds ofregular polygons. But it's also
a very pedagogical example of how to buid "high level objects" above PSTricks
existing ones. See my talk at TUG'95 for details and another example
(on http://www.tug.org/applications/PSTricks/TUG95-PSTricks_4.ps.gz).
It also use the `keyval' mechanism in place of the original PSTricks one.

  * CHANGES:
      - V. 1.4 (98/07/09) Define `PolyRotation' parameter as a real number
                          and not as an angle, to allow to use \degrees
                          before to draw a polygon
                          (reported by Denis Girou <Denis.Girou@idris.fr>)
      - V. 1.3 (98/02/06) Rename `PsPicture' parameter to `PstPicture' for
                          consistancy
