# Extract ASCII text from a PostScript file.  Usage:
#	ps2ascii [infile.ps [outfile.txt]]
# If outfile is omitted, output goes to stdout.
# If both infile and outfile are omitted, ps2ascii acts as a filter,
# reading from stdin and writing on stdout.

# This definition is changed on install to match the
# executable name set in the makefile
