dvips default behaviour

  Hello all,
             I would like to suggest a change to dvips.

The dvips program defaults to piping its output to a printer. This
is confusing, and can cost money. The normal form of convert commands,
like pdf2ps, produce a file as the default output (with a trailing 
hyphen indicating standard out) but dvi2ps is an exception.

Maybe once upon a time ps files were only for printing, but previewers
are so fast and ubiquitous that their use a data format is common.

Can we change the default /usr/share/texmf/pdvips/config/config.ps
so that a file becomes the default output?

   What do you think?
            Bill
