I'm using xfig for figures for a paper that I am writing.  When I hit
the export menu option, it crashes.  Inconvenient, since I need to get
this into a format acceptable to latex (is there a package for .fig
files?)

Anyway, is anybody else experiencing this?  Can anybody tell me a fix?

AFAIK, Xfig calls "transfig" for this. Maybe you could try to run it
manually?

Well, actually, there's a problem.  The tex file that is generated
doesn't contain the image, just a couple lines of data.
