I use,
\begin{figure}
\centerline{
\begin{rotate}
\vbox{\centerline{\input{figs/nl-red-lat}}
\caption{Reduced Generalized Lattice Filter.\label{nl-red-lat}}}
\end{rotate}
}
\end{figure}
This should also work for tables. I use a style file "rot.sty" I wrote based
on rotate.tex. It is availabel for annonymous ftp from augean.ua.oz.au.
The file name is "pub/misc/rot.tar.Z" I *think*.
Essentially, \begin{rotate} takes an optional argument of l,r,f or u
which basically does the same the same as \rotl, \rotr, \rotf and
\rotu except that it also does the \setbox stuff automatically. It
also swaps the values of \hsize and \vsize which is useful for
captions and anything set in "LR mode" (actually I think this swapping
should only happen for the case of l or r and it does it always since
l is what you want it shouldn't matter).
