[OS X TeX] Equations in picture environment

[KL Tah]

Hi,
That doesn't seem to work within the 'BText' function:

\BText(200,385){Get \makebox(0,0){$\mu_k=0.05$, $\mu_s=0.08$}}

gives the following error:

Runaway argument?
800){\@makepicbox }\def \reserved at b {\@ifnextchar [\@makebox \mbox 
}\futurelet
\ETC.
! Paragraph ended before \@picture was complete.
<to be read again>
                   \par
l.392 }

Any ideas?

Thanks,
KL

Here's one I've used, copied straight from the .tex file:

\put(20,-2){\makebox(0,0){$\mu_k=0.05$, $\mu_s=0.08$}}

I prefer \rput from pstricks and have used that now for a long time, so I 
don't remember all the bits that go with \makebox.
