Hrmm.. That file.gs should actually be a file.ps (ghostscript, postscript,
confusing when you're tired, I guess).

I ended up finding the mgetty+sendfax program `faxspool` does the hard
work of converting and sending the postscript file to the fax spooler 
(`faxrunq` doing a good job at the sending).
