How do I get dvidvi to format a document two pages per side
of 8.5 x 11" paper in landscape?  (I think this is called 
"two up" but I'm not sure...)

Looking at Gary Levin's twoup.sty, it appears that 

  dvidvi '2:0(-0.35in,-0.25in),1(4.65in,-0.25in)' old.dvi new.dvi

should work, but it doesn't, at least not with Timothy Murphy's 
recent (and appreciated!) port of dvidvi to the Macintosh.

By the way, I've also looked at Timothy Van Zandt's 2up.sty but I'm
afraid it overflows OzTeX's capacity (which I have set to the max)
every time.

Thanks in advance,
