Is there a version of mac.pro that will work with MacDraw 1.9.5 (Appleshare
v2.0.1) ??

My current version of mac.pro that I got the dvi2ps & psfig/TeX distribution
is #65.  I got my psfig/TeX from the dvi2ps (JBW version) distribution.  I
heard that the current version of mac.pro is #68 but I'm not sure if this
release would work with MacDraw 1.9.5.

Here is an excerpt of my psfig.tex (psfig 1.1) :-

%		 Macintosh LaserWriter header file.
%
% This is a file of PostScript definitions that can be affixed to the
% front of the PostScript files generated by Macintosh applications in order
% that they can be printed on a LaserWriter that has not been initialized
% with the "LaserPrep" package. This situation will arise if you are
% trying to share a LaserWriter between Macintosh users and non-Macintosh
% users.
%
% Macintosh applications do not normally generate straight PostScript.
% They generate a file in PostScript format, but the contents of the file
% is a series of calls on functions that are not part of the PostScript
% language. This file defines those functions.
%
% This is not the official Apple header file. It is neither endorsed nor
% condemned by Apple. I suspect that it probably started out its life
% as a bootleg copy of a version of the Apple header file. It has been
% slightly modified by me and perhaps heavily modified by various other
% people. I have substantially augmented the comments so that they explain
% what I think the code is doing.

I was told by JBW that he couldn't get mac.pro #68 to work -- i.e. couldn't
include MacDraw figures into his latex documents.  So, I'm just wondering if
anyone has any clues on this.

Any pointers extremely appreciated.
