I'm not really familiar with what Corel is doing here, so...
Do you know if Corel documents what subset of the Postscript language (or what
structuring comments or whatever) they pay attention to? Do you know if any
other companies have adopted their conventions? UNIX and/or Windows?
It sounds like Corel does their own version of what I was talking about with
inventing one's own set of object structuring conventions. Having the S-PLUS
postscript() function output Postscript that could be edited DOES sound like
an interesting idea.
