   Within pspicture environment, \itemize has to be wrapped within \parbox
   (or some others). For example,

   ...
   \pspicture(0,0)(8,8){
   ...
   \rput[l](1,2){\parbox{5cm}{\begin{itemize}%
   \item This is a test%
   \end{itemize}}%
   ...
   \endpspicture
   ...

   pstricks and other extending packages provide
   great ps figures, but the output is tricky.

   The summary is:
   =========================
   \documentclass{article}
   \usepackage{pstricks}
   ...
   \pagestyle{empty}

   ...
   \fcolorbox{white}{white}{
   \pspicture(x1,y1)(x2,y2)
   ...
   \endpspicture
   }
   =========================
   (Better one figure one file.)
   compile commands:

   latex fig
   dvips fig ----> this allows a quick preview
   when done, then
   dvips fig -E -o fig.eps

   The file has to be (or not?) an eps file.

Word break

標題: [隨寫] Technical Notes: Word break
時間: Wed Dec 16 21:35:53 2009


   To break a word after a hyphen, a "discretionary" hyphen
   can be added by \-.
   Example: spin-independent => spin-indepen\-dent
   This "discretionary hyphen" will appear when it is necessary.

   Contrarily, ABC~DEFG avoids ABC DEFG being broken into two words.
   This will be especially helpful when using BibTex.
   For example, the author Massimiliano Di Ventra should be
   typed as Di~Ventra, Massimiliano, because Di Ventra is his
   full family name.
