Package description for 'a2ps'

Converts text and other types of files to PostScript(TM)

 GNU a2ps is an Any to PostScript filter.  Of course it processes plain
 text files, but also pretty prints quite a few popular languages.
 
 Its slogan is precisely ` Do The Right Thing '', which means that
 though it is highly configurable, everything was made so that a novice
 user can do complicated PostScript manipulations.  For instance, it
 has the ability to delegate the processing of some files to other
 filters (such as groff, texi2dvi, dvips, gzip etc.), what allows a
 uniform treatment (n-up, page selection, duplex etc.) of heterogeneous
 files.
