     Summary : pmerge.pl assumes perl in /usr/local/bin

The first line of pmerge.pl specifies its interpreter as:

	/usr/local/bin/perl

My perl is installed in /opt/perl5.  I had to edit the file to get
it to run.  Perhaps you need a bootstrap script to buld pmerge.pl.

     Summary : Filename is too small on PostScript printout

At scaling factors of g4 and below, I can't read the filename at the
top of the first page of the printout.  It's too small.

No matter what scaling factor I choose, I need to know what I'm
looking at, even if the actual page contents are so small that all I
can make out is the general depth and complexity of the data.

I'm printing on an HP LaserJet 5Si/MX at 600dpi.

     Summary : Request: generate output for other paper sizes

I'd like to be able to print on paper sizes other than US letter.
Specifically, I want to print on 11x17 so I can see more of my data on
a page.

In addition, you'll need to support A4 if your product is going to be
used in Europe.

Subject: CCA didn't puke

Well, it looks like you were right.

I ran CCA against all of the code for my current projects here at HP
and it didn't puke.  I also used GhostScript to check all of the
PostScript output and it all looked fine.

In all, I fed it 291,000 lines of production C and C++ code in 975
files, including 5800 conditional compilation directives.  Aside from
the issues and enhancement requests I submitted, everything was fine.

How boring.

BTW, if your team fixes the filename size issue I submitted, I'd love
to have a copy to use here at HP.
