If Adobe wants this in their man pages (which they ship), why don't
they put it there themselves? Just "adding text to a man page" isn't
a trivial thing; we'd have to nroff format it. Plus, there are about
a score of Transcript man pages, not just enscript, so the pain gets
multiplied by about twenty.
If this kind of crap is going to come up every time we have to deal
with Transcript, then I'm going to junk it for the 8.3 release in
favor of nenscript or genscript. It's not worth the pain.
