  I have a need for a filter that will encapsulate a text file in the
Postscript commands required to print it out. Basically, I will toss
a text file at it, it will field it and encapsulate it, and then it
will toss it off at a LaserWriter. Ideally, it will also take a few
arguments to do landscape mode and the like. I can probably cook one
up on my own, but it'd be nice if there was an elegant one already done.
Please mail any replies to DKovar@BBN.COM. (I'm posting this from another
machine and it sometimes wants mail to come back to it. If such mail
arrives, I never see it. Long story ...)
