   What about writing a small user interface fron end to xpr/xwd ?

   Using Motif and Wcl it may be 1-2 days job (I wish I had those 2 days).

   The only problem may be that some vendors do not ship MIT xwd nor xpr,
   but you can always get it from the MIT tape.
   The only drawback of xpr is (besides few bugs) that it does not support
   archaic dot printers so widely used on workstations in the past,
   but it can be added with a little effort.
