Summary description: Packages that draw the rubik cube
Announcement text:
The \rubikcube\ package provides LaTeX commands and macros for typesetting Rubik cube (3x3x3) notation, configurations, and rotation sequences using the TikZ graphic language. The \rubikrotation\ package is an extension for the rubikcube package. It provides the \RubikRotation command which processes on-the-fly a sequence of Rubik rotation moves (using the Perl script rubikrotation.pl) and returns the new Rubik cube state.
These packages are located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/rubik/ More information will some day appear at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/rubik http://www.ctan.org/pkg/rubikcube http://www.ctan.org/pkg/rubikrotation (i.e. when another nasty bug afflicting our website will have been squashed.) In the meantime, try: http://texcatalogue.ctan.org/entries/rubik.html http://texcatalogue.ctan.org/entries/rubikcube.html http://texcatalogue.ctan.org/entries/rubikrotation.html There is no known reason why these pages should not appear quite soon (hopefully tomorrow).
