make.coverpg - create a fax coverpg on stdout

       The idea  behind  make.coverpg  is  Copyright  (C)  1993  by  Gert  Doering,  <gert@greenie.muc.de>,  the
       implementation will most likely have yours...

greenie                                             27 Oct 93                                    make.coverpg(1)

make.coverpg  is  called  from faxspool(1) to generate a cover page for the just-processed fax. It has to
       create a proper G3 file (e.g. via pbm2g3(1) or hp2hig3(1) or ghostscript(1)) and output that  on  stdout.
       If  the  program  doesn't  exist,  or can't be executed, the fax simply won't get a coverpage (so, if you
       don't want a fax coverpage, do not install it...)

       make.coverpg can put anything it wants on the page, but note that there are certain legal requirements in
       certain countries about the contents that *have* to be on the cover page,  for  example,  the  fax  phone
       number of the sender and the recepient, the number of pages, or similar things.

       make.coverpg  gets  the  informations about the fax to be sent from the command line, in the order listed
       above.

       If the environment variable normal_res is set to something non-empty, faxspool requests that make.coverpg
       creates a cover page in normal resolution (98 lpi). Default is fine resolution (196 lpi).

       NOmake.coverpg program is installed by default, since everyones needs differ too wildly.

       Some sample coverpage programs are provided in the mgetty  source  tree,  in  the  samples/  subdirectory
       (coverpg.pbm shows how to do it with "pbmtext|pbm2g3", coverpg.ps shows how I do it with ghostscript).

       In  this directory, you can also find two shell scripts (fax and faxmemo) that will take advantage of one
       more esoteric feature of my coverpage programs: if called with the option "-m  <memo-file>",  the  sample
       programs will put a text file "<memo-file>" on the cover page (used for short notes or such). To make use
       of  it,  faxspool  is  called  with  the option '-C "make.coverpg -m <memo-file>"' (the double quotes are
       needed!).

       A five-page fax sent from me to my second number could result in a call like this:

       make.coverpg 5 "+49-89-3243328" "Gert Doering" "3244814" "myself" "Sep 15 94" "22:10:00"
