Hi,
I've used a simple script that strips all white space between the end of
the page and the start of the next space and inserts a page break there
instead. Basically, that should modify the drafts so that they can be
properly printed on any paper size. Though, I've only tested A4.
I'll attach my boosted script that also downloads the requested
rfc/draft and then reformats it as described above. But beware, the
logic to determine the location of page break is extremely stupid.
Don't count on getting the rfc's intact :)
Oh, and mpage -2 works nicely for the printing part...
