In February, you asked about the "rotation" option to dvi2ps, which
was described in the man page for dvi2ps but which did not work when
you tried to use it.
I responded that the man page was wrong, and that both it and the
dvi2ps program would have to be updated.
I have finally found the time to do the work necessary to put the
"rotation" option back into dvi2ps; I have also updated the man page
in the sipb locker so that it is up-to-date.
The changes will not be released to the general public until some
time late tonight (Monday night, 4/2), so starting on 4/3 you should
be able to use them.
If "rotation" in a \special command *doesn't* work after 4/3, make
sure you are using the sipb version of dvi2ps and not the one in
/usr/athena/dvi2ps.
I hope this helps.
