About Me

My name is Brooks Moses; I am from Stanford, California, USA. My main TeX interest is typesetting mathematics and creating figures -- I am a graduate student in mechanical engineering, and will be writing my thesis in either ConTeXt or LaTeX. I have been posting on the comp.text.tex newsgroup for a year or so, and have recently joined the ConTeXt mailing list. My main contribution to the TeX world so far has been the MetaPlot package for MetaPost.
