Have you tried LaTex? Sure a .tex file starts with a preamble but you
could have two files head.tex (preamble) and tail.tex (\end{document}).
Then cat head.tex file.txt tail.tex > file.tex, then latex file.tex then
dvips file.dvi. Then you have your file.ps.
Once this all works, write a script that takes your file.txt as an
argument and gives you file.ps. All without X.
