I'm using transcipt 2.1 on a sequent symetry and have noticed that the landscape option and manual feed option (-L and -M) have disappeared from the psdit and pscat programs. What's odd is that they are in transcript 2.0. I know they have been removed because the prologue has also changed. In 2.0 pscat.pro had a BPL definition for landscape and psdit.pro had xiL. In 2.1 no such definitions exist. It's really wierd to find functionality taken out of a package. -- ______ JANET :jonathan@uk.ac.keele.cs Jonathan Knight, / BITNET:jonathan%cs.kl.ac.uk@ukacrl Department of Computer Science / _ __ other :jonathan@cs.keele.ac.uk University of Keele, Keele, (_/ (_) / / UUCP :...!ukc!kl-cs!jonathan Staffordshire.

My (second-hand) understanding of this is that Sun Microsystems added the -L and -M options, and that they were never in any versions from Adobe (although they hopefully will be in the future?). If it may happen that you got 2.0 from Sun and 2.1 through another channel (or direct from Adobe), that might explain/substantiate this. Sun has a source/redistribution license for TranScript, and have added a few features of their own along the way... I hope this helps. Glenn Reid Adobe Systems Developer Tools
