PSTricks isn't a very good way to work with LaTeX.  It is a pain in the 
rear, and it doesn't support everything that Dia can do. 

EPS files work ok, but if you want to use the LaTeX engine to do special 
text formatting (formulas, etc.) it won't work. 

I have used MetaPost rather extensively.  There are a few wrinkles/bugs (one 
of which is in bugzilla), but it is usable.  I posted some messages a year 
or so about it, check the archives. 

Otherwise, I'm out of town, but I should be able to look into how I do it in 
depth in a week or two. 

Good luck, 

          Rob
