I never claimed the program would extract certain pages from *every*
postscript file. I said it would extract certain pages from a file
conforming to PostScript conventions. In particular, the %%Page:
comment. Read the manual page for pspages and see what I mean.
I think you will find it does what it claims to do. If you find
something it doesn't handle, let me know & I will see what I can do.
