  Modified files:
    chinese              Makefile 
  Log:
  New port: enscript
  
  This port adds Chinese support to enscript, which means it can convert
  a BIG5/CNS plain text to a PS document, with all the fancy features
  provided by enscript.  Unlike bg5ps, it can't manage GB yet, but it's
  easy to add.  Another useful feature is with the ps2pdf and zh-ghostscript6,
  it is now possible to generate font-embedded Chinese pdf document from
  plain text on the fly, which also means platform-independent.
  
  Due to some problems in the CMap files provided by Adobe, Eten-B5-H and
  B5-H CMaps are unable to map correct ascii glyphs in TTFs.  BIG5 users
  are suggested to use B5pc-H for the time being.
  
  Maybe it's time to re-organize ports/chinese/* font relationships.
