	I use SendPS to download my images in postscript format to an
Apple Laserprinter.  It takes about 3 to 5 minutes to print out each
image.  There are about over 100 images.  I tried to do this after dinner
in order to avoid jamming the laserprinter during day time.  I am wondering
if there is a kind of batch file type thing on Mac like this:
		for file in $*
		do
			echo $file
			SendPS $file
		done
Thus I do not need to sit there to press button all the time.  I figure
that someone would suggest me switch to A/UX.  I do not have A/UX.  My
PC is run under DOS.  However, MKS company sells MKS system which is 
pseudo shell thing.  I can to the batch file job on my PC.
	Any suggestions would be appreciated.
