Wow, that is neat.  I haven't messed with PdB yet (I'm
pretty proficient the old-fashioned way :-) ), but I do
plan to.

Question: can you make it preface your file with a
bounding box so it looks like a good EPS document?  How
about DSC in general?  If it would do that, it'd make
incorporating your PdB programs into drawing programs
and such much easier.  Ease is the point, afterall. :-)
