Subject: dvipsk 5.55a/dviljk 1.1/xdvik 1.8

I've released new versions of kpathsea and the drivers I've modified to
use it: dvipsk, dviljk, xdvik.

They're in the usual place:
    ftp.cs.umb.edu:pub/tex/{xdvik,dvipsk,dviljk}.tar.gz

As always, thanks to the many people who contributed.
Here's the NEWS:

kpathsea 1.8
* New target install-info, so the documentation can be installed without
  the headers.
* Existing but unreadable files are complained about, instead of just ignored.
* A leading %% in a path element forbids searching the disk for that
  element; only a db will be searched (if it exists).
* The db is only used if it might be relevant to a given path element,
  not searched first regardless.

xdvik 1.8
* Memory fault on `R' avoided when some fonts were not found.
* Always try closing files, instead of relying on errno==E[MN]FILE.
* EPSF files scaled with \magnification (thanks to Uwe Bonnes).
* Support for epsf decompression a la dvips (thanks to Karen Barrett).

dviljk 1.1
* MakeTeXPK magstep set properly.
* Better test for the Alpha.
* Garamond, Antique Olive, and Marigold base fonts installed properly.
* Script to run dvicopy then dvilj included (contrib/dvihp).

5.55a
* DVIPSSIZES and TEXSIZES override the `R' config file line.
* Update for dvips 5.55.
