   `\oval(width,height)[portion]'

   The `\oval' command produces a rectangle with rounded corners.  The
optional argument, `[portion]', allows you to select part of the oval.

   * `t' - Selects the top portion

   * `b' - Selects the bottom portion

   * `r' - Selects the right portion

   * `l' - Selects the left portion

   Note that the "corners" of the oval are made with quarter circles
with a maximum radius of 20 pt, so large "ovals" will look more like
boxes with rounded corners.
