DESCRIPTION
       xpsv is a PostScript Previewer which  requires the Display
       PostScript  Extensions  to  X. This version is for Silicon
       Graphics Workstations running 4.0 onwards.

       It is similar to the PostScript Previewer supplied by  Sun
       Microsystems  and  SGI  called  psview and is a dead pinch
       from there with only the  names  changed  to  protect  the
       guilty. It has additional features and
                          You get the source.

       Please  read  on  for  more  information  about  switches,
       resources and interactive commands.

groff_fonts
These contain various groff fonts which can be installed in your
groff/font/devps subdirectory. It includes the .ps and .afm files as well as
the description files. There is also a download file.
The files are tarred fromthat directory so you may simply use
	tar xvfo groff_fonts.tar
to extract them BUT remember that you may overwrite anything there to start
with that has the same name i.e. the file download. 

Note that if you have Display Postscript on your workstation (e.g SGI or DEC
machines) then if you add the ps files to /usr/lib/DPS/outline/base and the
afm files to /usr/lib/DPS/AFM then xpsview, fontview and DPS will know about
them for displaying Postscript.
Remember as well that the afm and ps files do not have an extension when
copied into /usr/lib/DPS/AFM and /usr/lib/DPS/outline/base.

These fonts were originally ftp obtained and fiddled with from 
	sonata.cc.purdue.edu
	/pub/next/graphics/fonts

Uncompressed the tar file is 5488640 bytes.

pasting.tar.Z
These contain various macros plus utility files which are used here at Curtin
for pasting PostScript images into groff documents. We have a standard
Makefile for producing documents as well as a stdMakefile which handles the
heavy centralised work. These files will be untarred into the current directory!

uncompressed size of pasting.tar.Z is 184320

gcal.tar.Z

        gcal(1)                                                   gcal(1)


        Name
               gcal - produce calendar file for speccy groff output

        Syntax
               gcal [month] year

        Description
               The  command  produces  a  calendar file for the specified
               year in groff input format.  If a month is also specified,
               a  calendar just for that month is printed.  If neither is
               specified, a calendar for the present month is printed The
               year  can  be  between  1 and 9999.  The month is a number
               between 1 and 12.

        Example
               The following example  produces  a  calendar  for  October
               1988.   cal  10  1988  An  unusual calendar is printed for
               September 1752.  That is the month 11 days were skipped to
               make  up  for  lack of leap year adjustments.  To see this
               calendar, type:   cal 9 1752

        Restrictions
               The year is always considered to start in January.  Beware
               that ``cal 83'' refers to the early Christian era, not the
               20th century.

uncompressed size of gcal.tar.Z is 40960
