Hi Thad,

I think I've solved this mystery - the std.hdr on your website is shipped as mp.hdr in Enscript these days. The only difference (other than licensing) is a slight change in date format:

-%Format: datestr %D{%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y}
+%Format: datestr %D{%d/%m/%y %Hh%M}

You should be able to use it with "--fancy-header=mp". It's trying to copy the appearance of the OpenWindows "mp" tool, I understand - if you believe the date format should be changed to more closely match that tool, let me know.

(I'll send you an email in case Savannah doesn't.)

Kind regards,

Tim

Short story: std.hdr (which existed in /usr/share/enscript on SunOS
OpenWindows in the 1990s) hasn't been found in any enscript release
since the 1990s. I have a copy of it for re-inclusion (see below)
from my website. Attached are two articles I wrote earlier today in
the Yahoo linux group of which I'm a moderator.
