I take back what I said about this module working  wonderfully  -
it  doesn't!   At  the  time I had only tested it with some psdit
(ditroff <-> postscript) output, and it appeared to work, includ-
ing  the  cute icon with a blank scroll that gets written to when
the first page is processed. I later tried it with  some  of  the
demos  that  come with the package, and none of the worked! Since
then, I have junked the new version and reverted to the old  one.
It  might  mess up with my screen, but it is more functional than
the new version (not to mention that it is about 400K smaller)!

Oh, well! At least the showpage patch worked!
