u2ps's Issues

compiling on cygwin64

Hello!

I just tried it, and I found I had to add the -std=c99 option for the compiler to work. I also found that the header definition of the struct runopts.stdout conflicted with other definitions of stdout elsewhere; I fixed the issue by renaming it to runopts.stdouts everywhere it appeared.

how do I manage word splitting at the end of the line?

First of all, thank you for developing this tool.
I have a text file which has long lines. I use -w switch to split long line into new line, however sometimes it splits a word incorrectly.
How do I disable word splitting in u2ps?
Regards.

Problems with tests

Hello,

I was trying to make a port of u2ps, and ran into some problems with tests:

• The *.c tests seem to be straightforward enough -- just {,g}make
  them and execute.
• I don't quite understand how the *.ps tests are supposed to work.
  Do I need to invoke gs with some specific arguments, or
  environment to run these?
• The *.sh tests seem to be failing for me, but that's probably due to
  the way gs is compiled on my system. I did, however, notice a bashism
  on the line 10 of px_reduce_rgl.sh: ">&/dev/null". Would you consider
  instead making it ">/dev/null 2>&1"?

Would you please consider writing a bit of documentation for the tests
(like a few comments should be enough), and writing a make target to
run them automatically?

u2ps issuing a message "DEBUG: FC_WEIGHT didn't match"

After building and installing, as a simple test:

$ u2ps README
DEBUG: FC_WEIGHT didn't match
$

Was expecting PostScript on stdout, but that's all there is.
I added the -v flag and got:

$ u2ps -v README
Terminal area 481x732pt, final font size 1000cpt, 80 cols 73 rows
Font R aspect 600cpt xscale 1000mil name FreeMono
Font I aspect 600cpt xscale 1000mil name FreeMonoOblique
Font B aspect 600cpt xscale 1000mil name FreeMonoBold
Font O aspect 600cpt xscale 1000mil name FreeMonoBoldOblique
DEBUG: FC_WEIGHT didn't match

Is there a debug flag I should turn on to show what's being executed?

if -W is the first option: Unknown option -W

$ u2ps -W -H -P letter --margins -72 N010.txt
Unknown option -W

-M and --margins seem to have no effect

-M and --margins seem to have no effect on the output.
I tried both positive numbers and negative numbers.
I tried single numbers, a pair of numbers, and four numbers.
