Match the braces by adding } at the end. I have the following style file
that I keep in /LocalLibrary/TeX/inputs/draftcopy.sty. For some reason,
labelling it draft.sty did not work. Note the the DRAFT will not appear
in TeXview.
----------------------draftcopy.sty-----------------------------
% To use: Use an an option to the \documentstyle command in LaTeX
% e.g. \documentstyle[11pt,draftcopy]{article}
% Prints a large "DRAFT" diagonally across each page
% Does not show up in TeXview
\typeout{Prints "DRAFT" on each page; does not show in TeXView}
\special{!userdict begin /bop-hook{gsave 200 30 translate
65 rotate /Times-Roman findfont 216 scalefont setfont
0 0 moveto 0.85 setgray (DRAFT) show grestore}def end}
