I'm sure that this question has been asked a thousand times, but:
Is there such a thing as a utility (for Unix) that would read a
Postscript file and convert it to a plain old ASCII file?  I just
got some Postscript RFCs from the Network Information Center and,
while I think I can find a Postscript printer around here somewhere,
I'd like to convert them to ASCII so I can futz with them online.

Please reply by mail--I imagine everyone's sick of this question
already.

Thanks.
