[pstricks] Options for \psset

[Vince McGarry]

Hi Rich,

See page 11 in the the user's guide.

The default unit is 1cm. psset{unit=whatever} will set the unit to  
whatever. The horizontal and vertical scale can be set individually.  
psset{xunit=40pt, yunit=1.4in} will scale the horizontal and vertical  
scales so that \begin{pspicture}(0,0)(3,3) will define a rectangular  
picture 120 points by 4.2 inches. This must be set before calling the  
pspicture environment.
