634 -> manualpart and the mix technique is not needed anymore
635 (both things are still available and working, but they will be removed in the future)
636 - _ensurefrac is implemented inside the frac constructor now; initialization is possible by:

638 - a string (as before via _ensurefrac)

707 - new module for handling of convex polygons (taken out of the graph module)
709 - new module containing a collection of helper functions (taken out of the graph module)
710 - moved the attrlist into helper -- as plain functions; attrlist becomes obsolete
712 - new module: a new and preferable integration of TeX/LaTeX
714 - strip glyphs from pfa/pfb-fonts
715 - there is a C implementation taken from pdftex
716 - fallback solution via an external program (pfb2pfa)
718 - (partial) C binding to libkpathsea

721 - removed some code duplication (various axis painters)
722 - use text module instead of the obsolete tex module
723 - allow for tailing zeros of automatic generated labels
724 - allow for missing data in bar graphs -> skipmissing parameter
725 - remove the support for variables given as keyword arguments in data constructor
726 - use context instead of extern for extern variables and functions
727 - graph keys; titles in data/function/etc.
729 - new classes for visual and width lengths, aliases for user length (u_pt = pt)
730 - all length classes have now by default a quantifier 1 (instead of 0), such that,
731 for instance, 5*unit.t_cm() == unit.t_cm(5)
732 - default_unit now has to be set via unit.set. For instance: unit.set(defaultunit="m").
733 - convert_to is now an internal function, which moreover does not longer accept tuples or lists
735 - new class _bbox (the former bbox) which accepts points in the constructor. This is used
736 for internal purposes.
737 - the bbox constructor now accepts user lengths in the constructor.
738 - new methods height, width, top, bottom, left, right
739 - ll & ur ???, what about ul and lr -> ugly!

744 - new constructor signature, more in line with rest of PyX:
745 epsfile(x, y, filename, **additional_args)
747 - removed additional column support in addcolumn; removed _addcolumn
748 - line reduction for datafile like the every parameter in gnuplot

751 - added support for patterns
752 - canvas.insert() now supports arguments
753 - bbox of canvas can be specified in writetofile command explicitely
754 - writetofile does not return self anymore

756 (as per a suggestion by Michael Schindler)
759 - changed the handling of extern functions and all variables
761 - gradient renamed to palette
763 - problem with sizefile on windows (tex module)
764 - allow for strings in graphxy's width and height; allow for width only (graph module)
765 - disable rating for labelattrs equals None (graph module)
766 - defaultstyle selection, when a list of data is provided to the plot function (graph module)
767 - traverse when adding functions as arguments of operators (mathtree module)
768 - allow for extern functions in addcolumn (data module)
769 - just one common place for the version number
770 - fix incorrect exception name MathError (path module)
771 - prevent double return of intersections for closed sub paths
776 - allow division of length by numbers
778 - new transformation: slant
779 - renamed all trafo methods to use the participle (i.e translate->translated)
780 - the name of all trafo subclasses are verbs (i.e. translation->translate)
782 - mark class renamed to symbol
783 - (text-)box distance measurement
784 - moved axis partitioning to axis and axis painter
785 - automatic axis partitioning (now officially: general cleanup, distance measurement, documentation)

798 - running TeX "on the fly" is basically implemented
800 - transformation bug (#624068, trafo module)
801 - canvas transformations (canvas module???)
802 - textbox alignment (graph module)
803 - return linewidth upon calculation with linewidths (unit module)
804 - allow column number variables with several digits
806 - british and american spellings (color module, graph module)
807 - small logo modifications
