Thanks -- I think for my needs, just being able to distinguish
between "n" and "t" should probably be enough. I'm not trying do
anything especially fancy for ps output -- just wanting to not
have the hacks I've got in their for console output affecting
other formats (in case somebody does actually want to generated a
PS or PDF file from on of the DocBookXSL-generated man pages).
