Van Jacobson is about to do it again. He has developed something called "PreScript" which is a compiler for a language which bears a striking resemblence to another language we all use, but simply compiles to Postscript. He claims it reduces pages of postscript to a few lines which look amazingly like C. Anyway, he is working to put this stuff in distributable shape, and will then flush it to the world. Please don't pester him about this. It will only slow it down. -Mike O'Dell
