My apologies if this mail gets posted twice, but I sent the original
yesterday and I haven't seen it arrive yet, so here's trying again.

I seem to be having a rather difficult time getting xfig and lyx to play
nicely together when exporting pstex/pstex_t files from xfig. I'm sure
I'm doing something wrong, but I can't seem to figure out what.

Here's the details:
tetex-2.0.2 (gentoo tetex-2.0.2-r1 package)
lyx-1.3.2 (gentoo lyx-1.3.2-r1 package)
xfig-3.2.4 (gentoo xfig-3.2.4-r1 package)

The error I get is:

Undefined control sequence.
 }}}}
         
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.


The lyx file is:

Here's some generic text, followed by a ps figure.
\layout Standard


\begin_inset Float figure

collapsed false

\layout Caption

inserted pstext graphic
\layout Standard


\begin_inset Graphics
        filename /home/grant/class/chem330/2003/hotcold.pstex

\end_inset 


\end_inset 


\layout Standard

More generic text, followed by a figure float that includes my pstext_t
 file:
\layout Standard


\begin_inset Float figure
wide false
collapsed false

\layout Caption

included pstext_t
\layout Standard


\begin_inset Include
\input{/home/grant/class/chem330/2003/hotcold.pstex_t}
preview false

\end_inset 


\end_inset 


\layout Standard

All done!
\the_end

The pstex_t file is:

\begin{picture}(0,0)%
\includegraphics{/home/grant/class/chem330/2003/hotcold.pstex}%

\end{picture}%

The pstex file is fairly lengthy, but if you really want to see it you
can snag it from "http://www.gentoo.org/~g2boojum/hotcold.pstex";.

Any advice gratefully accepted!

Thanks,
