I must have looked in an older one, sorry, You are right Werner, PSPIC
documentation is in groff_tmac. One question remains. According to the doc:

Does this 'scaling' mean, that it will be impossible (with the current
implementation of PSPIC) that we can produce another x/y relation than the
original picture has?

That makes it difficult to implement the scaling of the www.tmac .PIMG macro
for PS output using .PSPIC
Once the new .getopt is implemented, we should implement another .PSPIC option
to have another kind of scaling.
