Now I'm working on the ps-right-footer variable.  I wish to be prompted for a
page number so that the variable is set to:

 (list <page number>)

.  I did:

(defun my-ps-right-footer ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((my-page-number (read-number "page number? ")))
    (setq ps-print-footer t)
    (setq ps-right-footer (list 'my-page-number))
    )
  )

, but it doesn't work.  Any suggestion?

Thanks
Rodolfo
