How can I set zero line spacing within the figure environment, I have
created a set of characters with metafont which are all the same size
(1.5mm x 1.5mm) to graphically show my data. I am having to use \vspace* to
join the lines up to give a neat result.

I'm sure that there must be an easier way.
Sorry for asking such a basic question but I hope that someone can show
me the proper way to do this.
