DESCRIPTION
     This  utility  provides  functionality approximately equivalent to the Unix
     enscript(1) program.  It prints plain text files using a single  font.   It
     currently	handles  tabs  and formfeeds, but not backspaces.  It will line-
     wrap when using fixed-pitch fonts.  It will also do kerning and  width  ad-
     justment.

     The default device (-sDEVICE=) and resolution (-r) are as follows:
	   gslp      epson	180
	   gsbj      bj10e	180
	   gsdj      deskjet	300
	   gsdj500   djet500	300
	   gslj      laserjet	300
     By default the current date is formatted as the center header.

OPTIONS
     Standard switches implemented:
	    -12BclqRr -b<header> -f<font> -F<hfont> -L<lines> -p<outfile>

     Sun switches implemented:
	    -T<n>     set tab width

     Switches ignored:
	    -GghKkmow -# -C -d -J -n -P -S -s -t -v

     Switches added:

	    --add-to-space <units>
		   add	the  given  number  of	1/72" units to the width of each
		   space (may be negative)

	    --add-to-width <units>
		   add the given number of 1/72" units	to  the  width	of  each
		   character (may be negative)

	    --columns <n>
		   print in <n> columns

	    --detect
		   treat the file as PostScript if it starts with %!

	    --first-page <n>
		   start printing at page <n>

	    --kern <file.afm>
		   kern using information from the given .AFM file

	    --last-page <n>
		   stop printing after page <n>

	    --(heading|footing)-(left|center|right) <string>
		   set the heading/footing fields; use -B first to clear

	    --margin-(top|bottom|left|right) <inches>
		   set a margin

	    --no-eject-(file|formfeed)
		   end-of-file/FF only starts a new column, not a new sheet

	    --spacing <n>
		   use double (n=2), triple (n=3), etc. spacing
     Also, the string %# in a heading or footing is replaced with the page #.
