Perhaps there's something wrong with my installation. When I run mpost on attached tmp.mp I get attached tmp.0. I would have expected the letter $x$ to be positioned at (1cm,0) but instead it is positioned at (0,0). I've use boxes many times but thins I cannot understand. Am I doing something terribly wrong? Am I overlooking something? Any other suggestions?
