Just thought I'd let you know that I am a flint knapper.  I use ONLY rocks
and deer antlers to make stone tools.  Anything much harder than a Quartz
cobble does not work.  The surface has no give, on say a steel hammer, and
this it causes multiple hinge fractures, and uncontrolled flaking.  True,
sometimes the rock breaks, but then so does ps.  Memory management stinks
in postscript, and the fact that you can't decouple multiply copies of
strings easily are the only 2 minor drawbacks to it that I can find.

Cheers
