Does this support output of a 'macro-free' file in the RevTex system now 
used by the Physical Review for processing of compuscripts?  The problem 
with using other systems for preprints is that the APS will not take 
files unless you remove all \def and \input that invoke things not in 
their system, and there are real advantages (like no page charges in 
Phys Rev C and noticably faster throughput) to the compuscript program. 

Of course, I have found the TeX folks at the APS to be quite good about 
improving the features of their macro system, so perhaps some of the 
desired features of TeXsis could be requested to make the two compatible. 

BTW - other AIP member societies (AGU, OSA, and AAS) are joining the APS 
to develop a joint product with individual style files for each society's 
journals, while the AGU and OSA also intend to take meeting abstracts 
electronically in this fashion.  Clearly we should expect this to grow 
rapidly in the near future.
