System name:		paddington
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.1H (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	Use the Scribe PostScript previewer in the "athenadoc"
	locker.

What's wrong:
	viewdoc was replaced with a script to tell users to use
	viewscribe.  So far, ok.  Viewscribe however has an
	inconsistent useage message if you don't specify a filename:

	>paddington% viewscribe
	>syntax is:  postps filename

What should have happened:
	Useage message for viewscribe should be consistent with the
	name of the program.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	/mit/athenadoc/viewdoc
