Okay,

I drew a picture with xfig, while the latex option is was on.
I saved it in a file called fig.fig
Did fig2dev -L pio fig.fig > fig.pic
and
tpic fig.pic.

This gave me a fig.tex file.

I used the command \input{fig}\centerline{\box\graph}
in between a \begin{figure} \end{figure} environment.

Latex is giving me the following error message:

(fig1.tex
! Undefined control sequence.
<argument> ...2.063in\lower 1.510in\hbox to0pt{\s 
                                                  11\fR 0\fP \hss }
\rlap #1->\hbox to\z@ {#1
                         \hss }
l.32 ...lower 1.510in\hbox to0pt{\s11\fR0\fP\hss}}
               spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

Here is the file:
