hmm. is there ever a need for "alternate text" in a tex/dvi/ps
document? (tex, i thought, can "always" render the .eps file whereas
it is a standard feature that some html browsers cannot render
graphics.) and can you include anything other than an .eps file in a
tex document "as is"?

would you like me to submit a patch to add this behavior as a command
line option?
