Thanks for the response.

Well, the only part I borrowed from PyX is TeX related commands they
use (there is not much of implementation as far as TeX-related code is
concerned). From their code, I learned the meaning and usage of the
following TeX commands

\newbox
\setbox
\immediate\write16

And I used the same TeX commands in my code.
But I personally think this is not a (code) copy.

Other than this, the code is clean.
