using xfig + latex

["LOPARIC Marko" <loparic@core.ucl.ac.be>]

Hi!

Do you know how to export xfig figures with latex commands and insert them
in latex files? I was unlucky with pictex, eepic and pstex_t.


1. pictex: I was used to pictex format some years ago, but now the latex
commands get commented (I get a $ when I put a $ in the picture...)


2. eepic: I couldn't make eepic work: latex complains with

   ! LaTeX Error: \dashlinestretch undefined.

Do I need to input some other file besides transfig.tex?


3. pstex_t: That is the format suggested in the documentation of tranfig
package. But I was unnable to find the file psfig.tex, which is needed.


I am using transfig 3.2.0-2.2 and xfig 3.2.0-2 from hamm.


Thank you very much!

Marko
