Here's some miscellaneous Latex syntax in no format and not really meant for public consumption:
Latex graphics stuff (from Latex Graphics Companion)
make space for a figure:
\fbox{}
OR
\begin{pspicture}*[settings][baseline](x0,y0)(x1,y1) stuff
\end{pspicture}
% the '*' blocks stuff out?
\resizebox{xsize}{ysize}{stuff}
no space reserved:
\rput*[settings][refpoint]{angle}(x0,y0){stuff}
% the '*' blocks out
\includegraphics[angle=x,width=y,height=z,keepaspectratio]{filename}
\scalebox{h-scale}[v-scale]{stuff}
\rotatebox{angle}{stuff}
%hanging indent of paragraph:
\hangindent=3pc \hangafter=1
%equation numbering:
\begin{eqnarray}
lkasjdfls
\end{eqnarray}
% or \begin{eqnarray*} to not have it numbered
% \hfill and \vfill will insert space so things are spaced out - e.g. \vfill at end of slide will push all the previous stuff up to the top of the slide
