EXAMPLES
       Create a black and white OAKT stream:

	      gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
		  -sPAPERSIZE=letter -r600x600 -sDEVICE=pbmraw
		  -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
	      | foo2oak -r600x600 -g5100x6600 -p1 >testpage.oak

       Create a color OAKT stream:

	      gs -q -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
		  -sPAPERSIZE=letter -g5100x6600 -r600x600 -sDEVICE=bitcmyk
		  -sOutputFile=- - < testpage.ps
	      | foo2oak -r600x600 -g5100x6600 -p1 >testpage.oak
