System name:		maleficent.mit.edu
Type and version:	SPARC/4 8.2.13
Display type:		tcx

What were you trying to do?
Trying to use the application on a simple document (just containing the
word "hi" and a carriage return.

What's wrong:
The output is such:

----begin cut-and-paste
athena% fm2ps test.doc

fm2ps: Translating Frame files from MIF to PostScript
starting maker ...
maker: Using /mit/frame_v5.5/distrib/sun4x_56/fminit
maker: Starting FrameMaker 5.5. Copyright (c) 1986-1997 Adobe Systems Incorporated.
Frame reports error 3 "Error ???"

Couldn't find fmbatch: try adding frame locker

-----end cut-and-paste


Obviously, since it was able to start Frame, the frame locker is
attached.  But, I double checked this anyways...
