Posted on behalf of a colleague who doesn't have net access:

At a company whom I recently worked for, we had a need to replace the
enscript package from Adobe (we had upgraded from Transcript to NeWSPrint).
As a result, I have available the sources to a decent enscript clone, called
"nenscript" which implements most of the functionality of enscript. 
Features include:

	. Full implementation of gaudy mode
	. Works under MSDOS as well (is this a feature??)
	. Only handles Courier for text
	. Operates in landscape or portrait mode
	. Operates in one or two column mode
	. Full support for environment variables
	. optionally wraps long lines (pet peeve with enscript)

If there is sufficient interest, I will package it up and put it somewhere
FTP-able (including sources).
