Language:	HP-GL, Postscript
Package:	hp2ps
Version:	1.9b
Parts:	interpreter
Author:	Alun Jones <alun@texis.com>
Location:	ftp://ftp.wftpd.com/hp2ps19b.zip
Description:	hp2ps is an HP-GL interpreter that is written in Postscript. It runs mostly on the printer itself. There is a small C program, provided mainly to circumvent Postscript's problems with the ^C character, which is a prominent part of HPGL's text support. The C program is not necessary if the HP-GL does not contain text, or uses a different label terminator. Version 1.9c appears lost - anyone who has a copy, please send it to the author.
Restriction:	hp2ps is free for most use - distribution with commercial products, or use in a commercial setting requires agreement with the author, and possible licencing fees.
