Why doesn't 2,4 up printing come standard in standard NeXT environment?
It would be nice when you choose *print* in the menu, there is a place
you could click so that you had the option of 1,2,4 up printing.
I believe there are postscript filters for doing this so this
doesn't sound difficult; or am I missing something? 

It would be nice if all NeXTstep apps came with this option.
(esp. Terminal, mma, Draw, TeXview, etc.)

Just wondering out loud.....
