I'm trying to print a postscript document with 4 pages to a single page.
"a2ps -4 file.ps" complains that it can't find "psnup".
I've done an "apt-cache search psnup" and an "apt-cache pkgnames | grep
ps" but I can't find anything.
Is psnup part of some debian package ?
Thanks,
Brendan Simon.

I can't find the C library manpages. I'm running Potato on a PowerMac
and Intel system.
I have install manpages, libc6 and glibc-doc. I can't find any other
appropriate package by using "apt-cache pkgnames" or "apt-cache search".
What package do I need to install to get the C library manpages.
I have a new PowerBook G3 and it continually clicks. Sometimes it
doesn't click for 10 seconds or so and at other times it clicks close to
every second.
I'm running Potato with kernel-image-2.2.17-pmac, xfree-4.0.1 (self

I'm using Debian-2.2 on Intel and PowerPC platforms. I am using
magicfilter and lprng (couldn't get lpr working on my PowerMacs). It
