I was told that I can use the "figure" environment to include 
the postscript file into the latex file. I tried and the figure
doesn't locate at the place I put my command

\begin{figure}
\epsfbox{example.eps}
\cpation{exmaple}
\end{figure}


example.esp file is generated by xfig program.

Is there a way to place the figure at the place I want?
( I would rather not to use 
\epsfbox[ 0 0 30 50 ]{filename.ps} 
and mess around with the \hskip and \vskip

Thanks.
