Re: Goops docs paper formatting problems

[Alex Stark]

The goops manual printed reasonably, whereas the goops-tutorial was 
junk. (The necessary changes may be very small, such as an @if 
statement change.) It would be nice for these to print out in some 
form, so if you could do that, great.

Nowadays dvi files are not so problematic for users, via dvi2pdf and 
any-to-ps.  So perhaps providing a standard-font dvi file would be fine.

Thanks,
Alex.
