	There is nothing magic about the output of the transcript
utilities, other than that they follow the postscript document formatting
conventions.  Any properly formatted postscript file should be able to be
fed to psrev.  You can get a copy of the conventions from Adobe.

	This is not surprising.  Actually, it is surprising in a way; that
you got any response from Sun at all.  I'm starting to think that "Sun
software support" is an oxymoron.
