What were you trying to do?
Print out selected pages using the -x option
What's wrong:
The -x option only recognizes the first page; doing
dvi2ps -x 3,5,7 foo.dvi
only generates postscript for page 3
What should have happened:
It should correctly parse the comma-separated list of numbers;
looking at the code in DecodeArgs() in dvi2ps.c, there is no support
for this, even though the man page claims there is.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
From dvi2ps(1):
-x pages - print the specified pages in addition to those
A comma-separated list of numbers may be given.
