This is the very preliminary report of FSP 2.0.  It showed up in
the mail today.  I found a bug within 5 minutes but it is in an error
path that you shouldn't go down if you install it right.

As for the real stuff, I managed to get it to write a page of PostScript
to a disk, carry the disk to our UNIX system with the LaserWriter and have
it actually produce output.  This was just their sample page with a couple
of quick changes by me but it worked and looks good.  The bad news is that
there are none of the "required" comments in the generated PostScript.

I will continue to play with this guy and hopefully will have a more
detailed report available in a week or so.  For anyone who doesn't
remember I am the poor sucker that tried to get Publishing Partner to work
- by that I mean generate the right stuff in PostScript and have managed
to break every release they were willing to send me.
