You can still include .tex files

If you want a text in xfig to be replaced by LaTeX, you need to set the
special flag of this text (select the 'edit' button, press on the text, and
change the 'special flag' field).
If you run 'xfig -specialtext' than any newly created text will have the
special flag.
