There are many tools able to create nice EPS figures for including in LaTeX presentations, but what I think is setting Xfig apart is its ability to include LaTeX formulas directly in figure. On the other side, I could imagine Xfig user interface is strange for a regular user of another vector (or raster) drawing package; for casual user, like myself, I guess it's fine.

How do you do that? (use latex formulas directly in figure in xfig)
