Thanks to Jari Oksanen and Roger Bivand for reminding me of this. (It turns out that I do have it on my oldest Linux -- ca. 1997 -- but not on my more recent ones. I can't remember now whether it came with the distribution, or I installed it separately and then forgot about it! Oh dear, I can't remember whether I forgot ... ). According to the source website: http://www.pstoedit.net/pstoedit it now seems to be extremely capable. I must try it!
