Re: PostScript substitutions

[Phil Smith phil@xxxxxxxx]

Well, the simple (simple-minded?) answer is that I just didn't think of it.
But there are others, I feel sure, that fall in this category. As I noted,
one can work around it (or use XyWrite's proper characters!), but not all
PostScript characters are in Xy4's CHARSET, so the problem will arise some
day.

Thanks, though, for pointing out that Xy has its own em-dash.
