Is there any user-level (not developer-level) documentation for
xprint? I do not think so. Otherwise poster John Francis Lee would
not have had so many problems (unanswered on this list, for many months) printing Thai. People on the list could at least have said: RTFM! But there is no FM.

I think the user manual should be written before any coding is done. Many authorities in software engineering think so also:

It is late in the day, but maybe user-level docs can still be produced for xprint. I am very willing to lend a hand. Problem is, I am just a user, and I simply do not understand all this ddx and ppd stuff.

For xprint to be accepted by ordinary users (and even by Linux distributors) good documentation is absolutely needed. This should be the first priority above anything else. I said so before on this list.
