Hi,

    I have written a small shell script that takes in lines of text and
outputs very generic postscript that will generate transparencies
suitable for a overhead projector. Nothing fancy, but it works. (One
header file selects a large font and setgray, prints the header and
footer procedure with logo, and prints the lines, end with showpage).

   ***************
   *   I wonder if there does not already exist a small and functional
   * postscript generating program that can be used to typeset simple
   * documents, or transparencies.  MS-DOS based please.
   ***************

  PLease E-mail shri@legato.cs.umass.edu ...as I am not a subscriber here.

Many thanx in advance for all pointers ...

PS: I already have PC TeX, with dvips drivers .. but they are too
large, dont fit in my palmtop PC. A simple wordprocessor with
rudimentary PostScript support will do be ideal, but I am open to
all suggestions and pointers.
