Ah, yes. Sorry, I don't think that sort of incipit is possible with abc2ps
:(
BTW, the date stamping perl script I posted has an error: it will print
last month date (I forgot that in perl, localtime give months from 0 to
11). Sorry for that.
The corrected script is below.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
$flag = 0;
@date=localtime(time);
($day,$month,$year)=@date[3,4,5];
$month++;
$year+=1900;
while (<>) {
if (/^%%Page:/) {
if ($flag) {
print "grestore\n";
}
$flag = 1;
print $_;
print "gsave\n";
print "/Times-Roman-Italic findfont 12 scalefont setfont\n";
print "60 60 moveto\n";
print "(Printed on $day/$month/$year) show\n";
print "grestore\n";
} else {
print;
}
}
