This last digest has lots of food for thought! To start digesting, I 
copied and pasted Shane's script to a new file, saved it as a .scpt, 
dropped it innto my scripts folder, and ran it. Works great, except the 
postscript opens into Apple's TextEdit rather than Preview. The file _is_ 
postscript, but the name ends in .txt. Obviously, TextEdit renders it as 
text, so it's not terribly useful. I checked -- /Applications/Preview.app 
exists, so how's it getting ahold of TextEdit?
