Re: [bug-enscript] Question on "-2" column fill behaviour..

[Karl Berry]

    The syntax highlighting however
    I believe is more accurate and versatile under enscript.

Do you have a particular test case?

Anyway, enscript and a2ps (and the lesser-known trueprint) all do
basically the same job: convert text to PostScript.  It would be ideal
if there ware one program with the best parts from each.  Not a simple
job, I know, but usually GNU has only one package for a given job, so
effort is not fragmented.  As it has been here, for all the historical
reasons ...

Tim graciously volunteered to keep enscript going, and that is certainly
much better than staleness, but a different project to combine the
programs would be very welcome.

Thanks,
Karl
