I am a novice user of both TeX and PostScript coding, but I am trying to
include a screen captured encapsulated post script file into a .tex file
"inline"...  It would be ideal if it could be centered left-to-right also.

I almost have it working, but it is very slow and difficult.  I'm using
Arbor_Text's packaging of TeX with its own dvips that supports a different
\special command.

I was told by some to lose the Abrob Text implementation.

Any suggestions ???  I have had to modify the c screen grabber to get the 
encapsulated postscript in a form to make it work.  I am also using, and
had to modify, the 'epsf.tex' macro from stanford.edu to work with the
different \special command of dvips.

Note:  This is eventually going to be used with texinfo, so LaTeX is not
a possibility.  Everything I do has to work with normal TeX.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.  I could post what I have done so far
if anyone wants to see it.
