The ending of the **a2ps** package, including **psdiff**, **psbook**, **psmandup**, **psresize**, **psselect**, and **texi2dvi4a2ps**. The greatest mystery is the **showchar** command, which appears to do nothing. Upon further investigation (after recording), it seems that **a2ps** as distributed by Slackware also contains a collection of scripts called **psutils**, which provides **fix***, **ps***, **eps***, ***res**, and **showchar** scripts. The psutils collection is not yet in Slackware-current, so it is possible that it has been dropped from distribution. In the latest psutils sources, **showchar** appears to have been removed. shasum -a256=872c0faa92630453da3a94151488d2f1e0de75f698fc936031cc5f477430efae
