| Limitations (which I will try to fix in the future):

| 2. only supports the postscript core fonts Helvetica, Times-Roman,
| Courier, Symbol, ZapfDingbats (defaults to Helvetica)
| 3. no support for bold/italic fonts
| 4. outputs only eps

I made some additional changes (mostly style fixes plus adapting to
the new build system) and checked in this patch.

Thanks,
