Yeah, yeah, Emacs is wonderful, just don't let the Vi fiends hear you
say it :) No, please not another editor war!

Santanu> --output=buffer.ps --color \ --margins=25:25:30:30
I'd write a small function to do it. Write a function that selects
the buffer and then shell-command-on-region on it. The output will go
into a named buffer.

Santanu> So, can anyone please help me do this under emacs. (I

Santanu> I would also like to know what is the emacs equivalent of

Another defun: open line below, move to new line, add a space or
something, make it the region, again shell-command-on-region.
I doubt if these are the optimal solutions, but they should work.
