Description mwm 2003-04-26 16:40:11 UTC
	The handbook script for filtering postscript through gs is
	broken. It includes a second, unneeded invocation of gs that was
	probably meant to be commented out without explanation, and is
	missing a continuation mark on one command.

Fix: The attached patch removes the extra invocation, and adds in
	the  line continuation needed to make the script work properly.
How-To-Repeat: 	Read the handbook chapter on advanced printing, looking for
	"gs ".

Your patch was committed, but the continuation mark was not added. 
If the mark exists, the script does not exit "2" (needed for 
lpd(8)) when an error occurs.  And I think it does not break 
the functionality.  Thanks for the submission!
