Dear PSTricks users,

I have a question regarding \scalebox and PSTricks.

Does it really matter which \scalebox command I use? Or does this no longer apply for PSTricks97, which \scalebox seems to operate a bit differently.

{
	it no longer crashed on '{->}' in:
	\usepackage {pstricks, pst-node}
	\scalebox{2}{
	\begin{pspicture}(2,2)(8,14)
	\rput[c](2,8){\cnode{.4}{A}}
	\rput[c](2,6){\cnode{.4}{B}}
	\ncline[nodesep=5pt]{->}{A}{B}
	\end{pspicture}}
}

I read it was best to first load pstricks, then graphics, as to overrule pstricks \scalebox command:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
\usepackage {pstricks, pst-node}
\usepackage {graphics}

However, this results in the following error on this pspicture:

\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(2,2)\showgrid
\psline[linewidth=1pt, linecolor=gray]
	{<->}(0.5,0)(0,1)(1,1.5)(1.5,1)(.5,.5)
\end{pspicture}

! Undefined control sequence.
\GenericError  ...                                
  #4  \errhelp \@err@     ...
l.124 ^^I{<->}
              (0.5,0)(0,1)(1,1.5)(1.5,1)(.5,.5)

Thank you,
