<code>`</code><IMG WIDTH=21 HEIGHT=15 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline2688" SRC="img54.gif">, <I>i.e.</I>, a backquote and a direction <I>d</I> followed by
a target <I>t</I>, for each "turn" that starts out in the
<I>d</I>-direction and ends in a quarter turn towards the
target <I>t</I>. This is different from the curving described
earlier in that all turns consist of a straight part ending in a turn
which is a multiple of 18 circle segments, and each
segment allows separate labels.
<P>
The possible directions are those of section <A HREF="node9.html#basicsbends">1.6</A> and
<A HREF="node17.html#arrowschanging">2.6</A>, and the possible targets include all those
discussed above. Actually the direction is only required for the
first in a series of turns since the final direction of one turn is
the obvious choice for the following turn. Furthermore, turns can be
changed from the default by adding either <code>^</code><I>d</I> for
anticlockwise turn to <I>d</I> or <code>_</code><I>d</I> for clockwise turn to <I>d</I>,
where <I>d</I> is the "exit direction" of the turn.
<P>
Finally, the turns will have radius 10pt by default, but this
can be changed to any dimension <I>R</I> from a particular turn and
onwards by inserting <code>/</code><I>R</I> immediately after the <code>"</code> of the
turn. Here is an example involving all of
these features:
<BLOCKQUOTE><PRE>\xymatrix{
{\circ} \ar `r[d] ^a
`[rr] ^b
`/4pt[rr] ^c
`[rrr] ^d
`_dl[drrr]^e
[drrr]^f
& {\circ} & {\circ} & {\circ} \\
{\circ} & {\circ} & {\circ} & {\circ} }</PRE></BLOCKQUOTE>

The example illustrates the following points:
<UL>
<LI>If the segment can not be made as short as required then it will
point `past" the target. This is useful for "going around"
entries.
<LI>There is <em>one <code>`</code> per turn</em> thus each target appears as many
times as there are turns towards it, except the last target that
appears one more time namely both with <code>`</code> for each turn towards it
<em>and</em> once as an "ordinary" target to set the final stretch.
<LI>The sizes of the intermediate targets are ignored.
