overview.pic is a longish file that contains a picture, and I can't
really send you the whole thing.  What I've attached here is better
than nothing - it's cut down to just have the picture and the bits
before and after.

*But*, while this cut-down one demonstrates the problem with the top
and bottom clipping, it doesn't show the error in the clipping on the
right hand side.

Wait!  I just found the cause of that.  I'd left off the .TH line at
the top when I cut down the file.  This makes the RHS okay (though it
messes up the list, not too surprisingly).

Sounds really good - I'll be keen to get the next release!
