Argghhhhh!  I'd think NeXT applications would be able to get this
one right.

You can `fix' it `permanently' by adding the appropriate initialization
to the definition of `@start' in /usr/lib/tex/ps/tex.ps . . .

Maybe someday someone will read the EPSF specs.  I guess that's too
much to ask of software developers these days, though.

I am planning to purchase TopDraw and would be interested in getting 
some opinions about it's usefulness.
Also MediaLogic offers a discount when it is an additional order
and I would be willing to share that with the person through whom I could 
get TopDraw. 

Thanks, Gottfried Mayer-Kress
