 GNU a2ps is an Any to PostScript filter.  Of course it processes plain

text files, but also pretty prints quite a few popular languages.

For more information, see https://www.gnu.org/software/a2ps/

This release is a minor bug-fix release; no pressing need to update unless

you’re affected by a bug it fixes (see the end of this message for details).

Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature:
