  We'd like to be able to specify the title of a printout, the number of
columns, the width of the columns, the headers for each column, and the
text to go into the column and then hand this specification to a 
preprocessor that will generate the required Postscript code to display
it. Different applications will provide different specifications so it
needs to be fairly flexible. As anyone done anything remotely like this
or have any interesting ideas on specifications or implimentation?
