One problem with the spoiler is that is requires several tools that are not
on most unix systems (Net Pbm and latex, and dvips)
I guess Net Pbm proibably isn't totally uncommon, since a lot of web stuff
might use it.
(also, I seem to recall that the latex stuff also needs a special layout
file that is normally not part of it)
I wonder how hard it would be to convert output of the spoiler to html
format -- net browsers are pretty common out there, and most all of them
do have a html to postscript conversion in them..)
