  I'm trying to write a simple program to convert standard ascii text to a
slightly modified PostScript version of the same text (i.e. making some
characters boldface or italicized), but I have no idea what any PostScript
commands are (besides showpage).  Is there any place I can FTP a document
describing basic PostScript stuff?  Or any place I can get any information
at all?  -- I'd prefer not to have to buy a book or anything, because it is
such a small thing.

  Thanks for any help...
