while we're at it: PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE add version numbers to the
postings!!! (i.e. wp2latex-1.0) I'm often having a really hard time finding
out what version a given software is (i'm archiving a lot here by topic, not
by newsgroup). since i don't have BSD i can't save the stuff in a directory
named 'wp2latex-posting-of-9-Aug-1990'.....

thanks in advance!!
