I just FTP'd a copy of fig-fs 1.4 and transfig from svax.cs.cornell.edu and 
the documentation mentions the existence of EPIC and PiCTeX. I am already
familiar with PiCTeX, but I frequently run out of memory on my Sun while
using it. The situation is even worse on my AT compatible with PC-TeX.
I am curious about EPIC and whether or not it could be intermediate in
power between LaTeX's picture environment and PiCTeX. The transfig manual
mentions that EPIC is available from cayuga.cs.rochester.edu but I just
looked and found nothing. I also looked at about 5 or 6 other sites
usually well-supplied in TeX stuff and found nothing. Is EPIC still
available for FTP from anywhere? Thanks very much in advance for any
pointers. Francois
