Hi:

I'm looking for a simple example of a PS program that read/writes to
another file, even if that file is standard output.

I have looked throught several PS books and find a lot of good examples
for everything except for what I'm looking for (don't you just hate it when
that happens?).

I'm working on a Sun with a PS compatible printer or on a Mac with
SendPS.

Any help or pointers is appreciated.
