This program addresses envelopes on a Postscript or HP-LJ printer,
including barcodes for the zip code. A line beginning with `#' or
an optional alternate separator can be used to separate multiple
addresses. The parser will strip the formatting commands from an
address in a troff or LaTeX letter.
usage: envelope [options] < address(es)
Typically, envelope is used from inside an editor. In emacs, mark
the region of the address and do
M-| envelope
In vi, put the cursor on the first line of the address and do
:,+N w !envelope
where N = number-of-lines-in-address.
The barcode algorithm is adapted from a perl script by Todd Merriman
<todd@toolz.uucp>, Dave Buck <dave@dlb.uucp>, and Andy Rabagliati
<andyr@wizzy.com>.
