Mass reassign to Marco.

I use the following script to print 2up. It'll take input either from
standard input (i.e. a pipe) or using parameters.

#!/bin/sh
if [ $* ]; then
        echo args
        exec /usr/bin/psnup -pa4 -n 2 $1 | lpr
else
        echo noargs
        TMPFILE=`mktemp /tmp/lpr2up.XXXXXX` || exit 1
        cat >$TMPFILE
        a2ps -B $TMPFILE
        rm -f $TMPFILE
fi
