	    mgpfile

DESCRIPTION
     mgp2ps is a converter from MagicPoint file mgpfile to PostScript file.
     If -f option is specified, PostScript will be generated to psfile.	 Oth‐

     encapsulated PostScript file will be included to the PostScript file
     instead.

     -c	     Generate color PostScript file (experimental).  By default mgp2ps
	     will generate monochrome postscript file.
