I'm a beginner at ez, zip, et al, & have got stuck.
I'm trying to insert (zip inset) a picture in a text file (ez).
It basically works, but I get too much white space.
I'm hoping someone can tell me how to avoid it.

Detail:  
  "ez fred", where fred is a plain text file.
  caret moved to a random place
  esc tab
  "zip"
  plug in the November calendar
  browse
  the calendar is OK, but there's 2 or 3 times its height
    of white space below it

Scaling is no good because it changes the size of the calendar.
The white space seems impervious to ez.
I've tried changing zip.geometry.
Any general tips/pointers on method welcome.

Thanks,
Brian Keck
