What were you trying to do?

ez2ps does not work on the suns.  It gives the error:
	troff: can't open tables for /usr/lib/font/devpsc/DESC.out
	psdit: empty input.

It seems that the propper file is listed under:
	/afs/athena.mit.edu/system/sun4m_54/os/usr/lib/font/devaps
and
	/afs/athena.mit.edu/system/sun4m_54/os/usr/lib/font/devpost

on the suns, but on the SGI's it's where ez2ps expects it to be.  
So I guess the program needs to be fixed to find the right directory on
the suns, or the suns need to have the propper directory created.
