[OS X TeX] alignment of subfigures

[Martin Costabel]

If you replace in your first pspicture line (3,3) by (9,9), i.e.

\begin{pspicture}[unit=3cm](0,0)(9,9)

you will get what you probably want. It seems the [unit=...] command is 
taken into account only inside the pspicture, but I wish you good luck 
in finding this documented.
