5.3.3 Literal headers: `!' `\special'
-------------------------------------

You can download literal PostScript header code in your TeX document,
for use with (for example) literal graphics code that you include later.
The text of a `\special' beginning with an `!' is copied into the
output file.  A dictionary `SDict' will be current when this code is
executed; Dvips arranges for `SDict' to be first on the dictionary
stack when any PostScript graphic is included, whether literally (the
`"' special) or through macros (e.g., `epsf.tex').

  For example:

     \special{! /reset { 0 0 moveto} def}
