I noticed that it has often been asked that whether there is a program
that converts HPGL files into postscript, and I haven't seen a definite
answer yet. Could someone post the anser and add it to FAQ? 
I WAS interested in a solution, but finally decided to wrote my own 
driver for postscript output, though one for HPGL already exists :-(.
The result convinced me that the higher quality is worth the effort;
but sometimes you only want to get it done instead of getting it done
the best way :-).
