I'm a little stuck.  In an older LaTeX style I have the following:


\def\@normalsize{\@setsize\normalsize{13.6pt}\xipt\@xipt
\abovedisplayskip 11pt plus3pt minus6pt\belowdisplayskip \abovedisplayskip
\abovedisplayshortskip \z@ plus3pt\belowdisplayshortskip 6.5pt plus3.5pt
minus3pt\let\@listi\@listI} <
\def\small{\@setsize\small{12pt}\xpt\@xpt
\abovedisplayskip 10pt plus2pt minus5pt\belowdisplayskip \abovedisplayskip
\abovedisplayshortskip \z@ plus3pt\belowdisplayshortskip 6pt plus3pt  
minus3pt
\def\@listi{\topsep 6pt plus 2pt minus 2pt\parsep 3pt plus 2pt minus 1pt
\itemsep \parsep}}
\def\footnotesize{\@setsize\footnotesize{11pt}\ixpt\@ixpt
\abovedisplayskip 8pt plus 2pt minus 4pt\belowdisplayskip  
\abovedisplayskip
\abovedisplayshortskip \z@ plus 1pt\belowdisplayshortskip 4pt plus 2pt  
minus
2pt
\def\@listi{\topsep 4pt plus 2pt minus 2pt\parsep 2pt plus 1pt minus 1pt
\itemsep \parsep}}
\def\scriptsize{\@setsize\scriptsize{9.5pt}\viiipt\@viiipt}
\def\tiny{\@setsize\tiny{7pt}\vipt\@vipt}
\def\large{\@setsize\large{14pt}\xiipt\@xiipt}
\def\Large{\@setsize\Large{18pt}\xivpt\@xivpt}
\def\LARGE{\@setsize\LARGE{22pt}\xviipt\@xviipt}
\def\huge{\@setsize\huge{25pt}\xxpt\@xxpt}
\def\Huge{\@setsize\Huge{30pt}\xxvpt\@xxvpt}
\normalsize



But now I am using NFSS with LaTeX 2.09 which works fine on all my other  
documents that don't have explicity reference to \xipt etc.  Being a  
novice at setting up fonts in TeX (the NFSS setup took me awhile), what  
sequence should I convert the xipt etc to in order to map them into the  
NFSS sequences for LaTeX?  I am using psfonts.sty that comes with David  
Jones's psfonts package.  This sets up the fonts with the proper x spacing  
and all.  All I have to include is David Jone's times.sty (not Tom Rick  
and dvips) to get times fonts.  How do I do the mapping!
