This is Debian/GNU/Linux's prepackaged version of Angus Duggan's psutils PostScript utilities kit. This package was put together by Rob Browning from sources found at "http://www.tardis.ed.ac.uk/~ajcd/psutils/" and later repackaged by Jay Berkenbilt . Please see below (in the binary distribution) or the file LICENSE (in the source distribution) for details of the copyright and licensing arrangements for the PostScript Utilities package itself. Note that the license mentions some files (md68_0.ps and md71_0.ps and their uuencoded forms) that have unclear copyright. Those have been removed from the original upstream sources, which have been repackaged. See debian/README.source in the source package for details. In addition to psutils, this package includes a small utility called psjoin, which was placed in the public domain by its author, Tom Sato . It was downloaded from http://homepage3.nifty.com/tsato/tools/psjoin.html and included in the psutils debian package as a patch.
