Ever since I did the patch for printing TCP streams, I've been wanting
to get back to it and do a Postscript version.  First it'd be nice in
and of itself, but it would also allow nice touches like doing line
wrapping the way Gtk+'s text entry widget does: with a little curved
arrow glyph at the end of wrapped lines.  A choice of fonts would be
nice, too.

I think this would be a really useful generic printing mechanism: feed
it a block of text and it handles the formatting.  The recently-added
hex dump mode could use it, for example.

I've got a pair of Postscript books, but it seems no time.
