Announcement text:
Changes in version 2.1 * Bugfix: removed the buggy check for an appropriate version of pstricks-add. * Bugfix: 'thicklens' now also works with plain* lenses * Different minor bugfixes * Different enhancements * New psstyle 'OptComp' which sets general parameters for all optical components. Appropriate parameters 'addtoOptComp' and 'newOptComp' were also introduced. * New parameters: - 'label' allows a more condensed change of several label parameters - 'innerlabel' - 'compshift' - 'bsstyle' - 'connjoin' - 'newBeam' and 'addtoBeam' to allow for local changes of the internal beam style. * New component: 'optfiberpolarizer' * Changed 'fibercollimator' so that it uses two, three or four nodes. * Changed documentation to use 'pst-doc' class.

pst-optexp – Drawing optical experimental setups
The package is a collection of optical components that facilitate easy sketching of optical experimental setups. The package uses PSTricks for its output.
A wide range of free-ray and fibre components is provided, the alignment, positioning and labelling of which can be achieved in very simple and flexible ways. The components may be connected with fibers or beams, and realistic raytraced beam paths are also possible.
