My experience, under HP-UX, was that the 'dumb' model was not dumb enough --
it tried to write a banner first.  I created a 'postscript' model by 
removing every echo(1) in the 'dumb' model.  Try this for yourself.

Copyright restrictions, plus a bunch of portability qualms, make me very
reluctant to post or email my model file.
