[some corrections to my posting - sigh! teach me to trust a manual page.]

In a previous posting I asked about converting the Berkeley fonts
into postscript and using them in a [di]troff/postscript document -

I don't have any programs yet to automate this. But the best lead so
far is the program bldfamily in Sun's 1.1 release of NeWS.
This can be used to build a postscript font from a versatec raster font.

It looks good, but I still have to figure out the proper glue.
