I wrote such a program a while ago (undoubtedly because I had to look
at some PostScript file that was confusing).  The program I wrote was
called "psformat" and should be available from the Adobe archive
server.  Send mail to "ps-file-server@adobe.com" with a message saying
"send programs psformat.shar" (file name is from memory and may be
wrong).  I hope that's what you were looking for...
