i have a script called foo.sh

	#!/bin/sh
	arg=$1
	cat <<__EOF > $arg.tex
	\documentstyle{article}   
	\pagestyle{empty}
	\thispagestyle{empty}
	\begin{document}
	__EOF
	cat >> $arg.tex
	echo "\end{document}" >>$arg.tex
	(latex $arg.tex > /dev/null)
	dvips -f -E $arg.dvi > $arg.eps 2>/dev/null

invoked as

	%filter "./foo.sh some_name"
	$\sum_{i=0}^{i=100}x_i$
	%endfilter
	%image "some_name.eps" 0 40 20

within magicpoint.
