        !            12: .B Grabit
        !            13: builds a PostScript program that generates a text representation
        !            14: of one or more PostScript
        !            15: .IR object s.
        !            16: The program is written on the standard output.
        !            17: The following
        !            18: .I options
        !            19: are understood:

        !            21: .OP \-d
        !            22: Do not automatically dump the contents of unrecognized dictionary
        !            23: objects found in PostScript arrays.
        !            24: .TP 1.0i

        !            27: .I file
        !            28: into the PostScript program.
        !            29: .I file
        !            30: must contain legitimate PostScript.

        !            33: Use
        !            34: .I file
        !            35: as the PostScript prologue.
        !            36: .br

        !            40: When the program built by
        !            41: .B grabit
        !            42: is sent to a PostScript printer the text representation of each
        !            43: .I object
        !            44: is normally returned to the host computer over the printer's serial port.
        !            45: Use
        !            46: .BR hardcopy (1)
        !            47: if you do not have access to the port.
        !            48: .PP
        !            49: Each argument should be a PostScript
        !            50: .I object
        !            51: or commands that generate a PostScript
        !            52: .IR object .
        !            53: The program built by
        !            54: .B grabit
        !            55: produces results that are often close to legitimate PostScript that
        !            56: can be successfully sent through an interpreter.
