Patrick et al, I got around my last problem by defining a new typing environment, so the idea below is almost working the way I want. I have:
\startbuffer >> x=linspace(-2,4); >> y=x.^2-2*x-3; >> plot(x,y) >> xlabel('x') >> ylabel('y') >> title('y = x^2 -2x -3') >> grid on \stopbuffer \placesidebyside{% \framed[align={lohi,right}, frame=on, offset=10pt, background=screen, screen=0.8, foregroundcolor=darkred]{\typebuffer}} {\externalfigure[slide1.pdf]} My graphic slide1.pdf is about the right size, so I didn't have to adjust its width. However, I'd like the graphic to be centered in the remaining room available. Anyway of doing that? I lieu of centering, is there some way I can get a little bit of space between the typebuffer and my graphic?
