        !            16: .I Xnsrprint
        !            17: retrieves the files named in \fIfile1\fR through \fIfilen\fR and sends them 
        !            18: to an Interpress printer.
        !            19: .PP
        !            20: If the file is a simple text file, \fImaha\fR will be invoked to format
        !            21: the file into an Interpress master which is sent by \fIxnsprint\fR.
        !            22: If the file is already an Interpress master, \fIxnsprint\fR is invoked
        !            23: directly. An appropriate message is issued if the file is of a type other
        !            24: than text or Interpress.
        !            25: .PP
        !            26: The arguments specified in \fIfile1\fR through \fIfilen\fR may be in one
        !            27: of the following three forms, where host is a Clearinghouse name of the form

        !            34: .PP
        !            35: Credentials for accessing the remote service are determined either from the
        !            36: environment variables XNSNAME and XNSPASSWD or, if not defined, by prompting 
        !            37: the user.

        !            48: causes the Interpress master to be delivered to the printer specified in

        !            52: .I xnsprint
        !            53: will determine the printer either from the environment variable PRINTER

        !            64: .PP
        !            65: There should be a way to pass other command line switches to \fImaha\fR or
