You might try getting the PBMPLUS package.  It will do what you want plus
a whole lot more.  The latest version is always available via anonymous
FTP as expo.lcs.mit.edu:contrib/pbmplus.tar.Z and
ftp.ee.lbl.gov:pbmplus.tar.Z.  The version of 22nov89 (which currently is
still the latest version, except for the one official patch so far) was
posted to comp.sources.misc, and is therefore accessible via mail to one
of the archive servers.  This version is also available in the X.V11R4
release tape.

Also, I maintain an electronic mailing list for PBMPLUS users and
developers.  If you wish to be added to the list, just let me know.
