The auxiliary file serves to make a 'dialog' between LaTeX and phystricks.
We ask LaTeX to write the box sizes therein.
Each `Picture` has an auxiliary file.

return as 2-uple the dimensions of a LaTeX box containing an expression.
INPUT:
- ``tex_expression`` - a valid LaTeX expression.
OUTPUT:
- ``width,height`` - the dimensions of the box in centimeter.
EXAMPLE:
Type the following in a script :
text = "$A_i=\int_a^bf_i$"
dimx,dimy=pspict.get_box_size(text)
print "The dimensions of the LaTeX text %s is (%s,%s)"%(text,str(dimx),str(dimy))
After having LaTeX-compiled the document containing the pspicture, a second
execution of the script should print :
The dimensions of the LaTeX text $A_i=\int_a^bf_i$ is (1.66653833333,0.46667)
NOTE:
As far as the problem is concerned from a LaTeX point of view, it was discussed here:
http://groups.google.fr/group/fr.comp.text.tex/browse_thread/thread/8431f21588b81530?hl=fr
This functionality creates an intermediate file.

return the value of the (LaTeX) counter <name> at this point of the LaTeX file.
Makes LaTeX write the value of the counter in an auxiliary file, then reads the value in that file. (needs several compilations to work)
- Returns
- a float.
If you ask for the page with for example page = pspict.get_counter_value("page") the given page will be the one at which LaTeX thinks the figure lies. Since a figure is a floating object, if you have many of them in a row, the page number could be incorrect.
