My fault :-) I should've indicated that I specifically needed a tool that would
run on a unix (specifically a SPARC) platform.

I did try there also. Problem is that I specifically need a tool rather than
the theory through which I could build one. I don't really have the time to
develop one of my own.

Jonathan, this sounds very much like what I might need. I have also had some
requests sent to me to pass this on if it should work.

I do not have ftp access to anywhere and I do not know how to access these
comp.sources.unix archives. Does anyone know if this psfig might help or how I
could get a copy?
