Well, pstricks is not the only output format for Dia. We would first have to be sure about the semantics we want. In most cases, like PS export, we mostly want a conversion (no literal transport to PS). What about all the other formats? Should a text be literally exported to some formats and to others not? Should there be a kind of auto-detection what kind of text you have and decide if you want to escape or not? Maybe we should file a gnome wishlist bug for a "literally" option for texts (for exports)? > On second thought, several figures in my dissertation were done using Dia > where the LaTeX *was* interpreted later, so I guess the bug I'm reporting is > that the behavior is inconsistent.

I will do this if we have figured out the above. Thanks, Roland -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
