; @file_comments
; switch to postscript mode and define it
;
; @param namepsin {in}{optional}
; name of the postscript file.
; Extension '.ps' is added if missing. It will be stored in the psdir directory.
;
; @keyword FILENAME
; to define the name of the postscript file through a keyword rather than with
; nameps input argument (in this case the keyword can be pass through
; different routines via _EXTRA keyword).
;
; @keyword INFOWIDGET
; If INFOWIDGET is present, it specifies a named variable into which the id of
; the widget giving information about the postscript creation is stored as a
; long integer.
; This id is needed by <pro>closeps</pro> to kill the information widget.
;
; @keyword KEEP_PFONT
; activate to suppress the modification of !p.font
; (by default we force !p.font = 0  to make smaller postscripts)
;
; @keyword PORTRAIT
;
; @keyword LANDSCAPE
;
; @keyword KEEPPFONT
; same as keep_pfont
;
; @keyword LIGHTNESS
; a scalar used to change the Lightness of the color palette to be able to
; adjust according to the printer we use, the media (paper or slide)...
; > 1 to get darker colors
;
; @keyword _EXTRA
; Used to pass keywords to <pro>device<pro>.
