% Almond Figure Macros and belief function definitions.  This provides
% a package of interface routines to postsript figures.

% The routines in question use a definition called directory which
% points to the figure directory.  That should be changed in each
% program.

% The principle routine is \psfig which takes 5 arguments.  The first
% is the figure number, the second in [] is the name of the file
% (minus the .ps extension and the directory (which is taken from
% \directory)) The third is the caption for the figure, the fourth is
% hsize= horizontal dimension and the fifth is vsize= vertical
% dimension.  The whole thing is finish with a /
% For example:  \psfig3[graph]{A really stupid plot}}hsize=4in
% vsize=75pt/  This produces a figure with \directory/graph.ps as the
% postscript file.  Its caption is {\it Figure 3. A really stupid
% plot\/} and a space of 75pt will be left for it the vertical space,
% and it will be centered as if it is four inches wide.
% The horizontal and vertical size parameters are sent via the hsize
% and vsize parameters of the special command.  See dvi2ps
% documentation for more details.

%%%%%%%%%%%Collosally important note:  There are at least three
% versions of dvi2ps running around (I've seen two on the Statistics
% Dept. machines).  They use different units for passing hsize, vsize
% commands (most use bp, some use inches).  This may need to be set
% for your local machine.
