which goes back to an old discussion about user-friendly stuff that I'll 
quote from memory:
"but can you do
   for i in *.dvi; do dvisp $i; done
"
so I guess not much people dvips their documents, but this can easly be 
applied to any similar task that
can be scripted but not entered in a gui.

Also, this reminds me of all those fools who insisted on having an NT FW 
because NT is easy to
configure, and 2 days later call to report that something probably called 
"DNS" is not working!!
while it takes'em few mnutes to point and click to run winword and type a 
document, they didn't
realize that no operating system can configure your network for you.

cheers,
mouss
