In a recent posting, an updated "pscal" was posted. I found one small
"bug" (where the program didn't behave as the comments suggested.)
The change is in line 93... change

	-*) echo "$USAGE" 1>&2; exit 1;;

to

	-*) eval ENVAR=$1; shift 1;;

Also, the comment on line 29 should read "Any argument whose first character
is '-' but which is not a recognised 'pscal' flag is passed on to lpr."

Note also that most people will have to change the assignment of LPR
to just "lpr" (or, perhaps, "lpr -Pps" to get to a PostScript printer.)
