[PD] pdpedia - creation of png images of patches

[Andy Farnell]

Nice. I did this a little while ago too with the help of Frank and Miller
in order to print out entire directories of patches. You might want to 
add this awk script into the chain (assuming it's still needed), it corrects
the pointsize and position of object text in the postscript file.
