+dvips 5.72 notes:
+
+ Bug fix in t1part.c??? I hope so!
+
+ Debugging now turned on by default. No real reason to turn it off.
+ (Too many Linux versions of dvips without debugging have been
+ distributed, and it makes it very difficult to help the users with
+ their problems . . .)
+
+dvips 5.62 notes:
+
+ The makefile and config.ps and MakeTeXPK need to be modified to fit
+ your site!
