the latter. actually, i just want to use MetaFont to make simple line drawings
(& that i can view in xdvi) rather than "on the fly" fonts. i'm reading the
Metafontbook and have learning how to use curve and flex somewhat but would
like more intro material & material on drawing generally than the metafont 
book provides.
