The \fBpic\fP language is a \fBtroff\fP extension that makes it easy
to create and alter box-and-arrow diagrams of the kind frequently used
in technical papers and textbooks.  This paper is both an introduction
to and reference for \fIgpic\/\fP(1), the implementation distributed by
the Free Software Foundation for use with \fIgroff\/\fP(1).
