[Haskell-cafe] [Announce] haskintex-0.6.0.0

There is no way of using haskintex combined with diagrams at the moment.
But using the HaTeX library you don't have to write the tikz code! Let the
library generate the tikz code for you:

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/HaTeX-3.16.1.1/docs/Text-LaTeX-Packages-TikZ-Simple.html

Unfortunately, it doesn't have most of the features diagrams offer.

You can write the source file and then use the Haskell import. You can also
open a ticket requesting a feature to include source files with a special
command. In any case, I take note of the suggestion. ;)

Best regards,
Daniel Díaz.
