I am in search of some code that I could insert in front of most postscript
jobs so that I get some USEFUL error output from postscript jobs.  Right
now, if a FrameMaker, SunView DeskSet, or some other program generates
postscript directly to the printer, I seldom see any error logging from
the transcript or BSD line print spooler software.  This makes it difficult
to figure out the problem ;-) .  I have some code that was once posted to
this group which generates 2 lines of error output indicating that an
error occurs and what the error is.  Unfortunately, it does not indicate
a line number or routine where the error occured, etc.

Does anyone have something that they really like for this type of thing?
