	I have 4 of the documentation files in postscript format.  I don't
know if that's all of them, but they seem pretty complete to me.  Here's
the sizes in bytes:

	 253202 cpp.ps
 	1721713 gcc.ps
	 102863 gplus.ps
	 385032 libcref.ps

	gzipped, here's the sizes:

	  73799 cpp.ps.gz
	 523686 gcc.ps.gz
	  31130 gplus.ps.gz
	 106418 libcref.ps.gz

	I've printed out libcref.ps, cpp.ps, and gplus.ps, but have
hesitated on printing out the mammoth gcc.ps (I estimate it would take my
printer 16 hours, based on the printing time of the other 3.)  To print
them on my epson lx 810, I installed the minimum setup of ghostscript,
then just ran "gs386 -sDEVICE=epson -dNOPAUSE libcref.ps" (essentially).
libcref.ps took about 4 hours 20 minutes.

	If anyone wants copies of the files, I'm willing to put them at an
ftp site somewhere or other . . or uuencoding and mailing them (if your
sysadmin won't mind :)
