Would it be possible to get GhostScript to do this?  Has anyone done this?

Ideally, a perl (or whatever) program could invoke the epsinfo.ps program
to GhostScript (with your file of course) then take the answer back, stick
it onto the PS file and, viola, an EPS file on stdout...

...now if we could just get a PC TIFF type image header on top too...

Thanks,
