R help - Dec 2002 - Adding a title to a postscript file

I create lots of postscript files which I view with ghostview.  The
beginning of the files all begin something like

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%DocumentNeededResources: font Helvetica
%%+ font Helvetica-Bold
%%+ font Helvetica-Oblique
%%+ font Helvetica-BoldOblique
%%+ font Symbol
%%DocumentMedia: a4 595 841 0 () ()
%%Title: R Graphics Output
%%Creator: R Software


The consequence is that in ghostview, they are all titled 
'R Graphics Output'.

Is it possible to add a title at the time the file is created (say,
defaulting to the name of the file) so that it's visible from within
ghostview?

Only by patching R.  I'll add this to R-devel.
