   Key {\tt stemlgth} is the length of the leads at the start, centre, and end,

     The {\tt L} (default) variant also defines internal labels
     Internal labels {\sl L} and {\sl C} are included.

   Key {\tt sep} is the type-{\tt S} separation from the head to the centre
     of the slash symbol.

   Key {\tt scale} allows scaling (default scale 1.0) but, with \dpic,
     the {\tt scaled} directive can also be used.
