We have heard of a whole bunch of utilities which translate ASCII text
into PostScript output suitable for printing one-up, two-up, four-up and
so forth.

What I want to know is, do any of these support two-up printing in
SIGNATURE ORDER?  That is,

	<Pass 1>

	p16 ... p1
	p14 ... p3
	p12 ... p5
	p10 ... p7

	(put paper back into tray)

	<Pass 2>

	p8  ... p9
	p6  ... p11
	p4  ... p13
	p2  ... p15

so that the resulting two-pass output can be folded and stapled along
the midline and read as a "book"?

If anyone has this, let me know... otherwise I have to write it AGAIN
and I *hate* writing software :-)
