My old Slurp package, which should be somewhere in Deja, consisted
of a few macros that embedded magic strings in the PostScript code,
and a postprocessor that sheared the slurs as specified by the magic
strings. It could also stretch slurs for a better fit.
I have been working on a postprocessorless version of Slurp, but if
Kneifl's package can do all this, I won't waste my time. I'll have
a look at it.
