A few months back, I asked about programs for printing mailing labels.
As I was never able to find anything that met my needs, I ended up
hacking together a solution of my own.  Brief description is below.

> makelabels is a program for creating PostScript files for printing
> onto peel-off mailing label sheets. Similar programs already exist
> (see the PostScript::MailLabels module and LabelNation); however, I
> found that these programs were not quite flexible enough to meet my
> needs. In particular, this program supports printing text of an
> arbitrary length and includes facilities for specifying the
> positioning of the text to be printed (in order to accommodate
> labels with pre-printed company logos, for example).
