{Using Asymptote like MetaPost}
{Asymptote is a descriptive vector graphics language for technical
drawing that fits very well with \TeX\ and friends. One appealing thing is
that it is in part based on algorithms from Metafont and MetaPost, but
it extends those to three dimensions. I'll cover a number of workflow
aspects that a beginner to this system who is coming from MetaPost might
like to use, notably using a single source file to output many
related graphics.}
