barcode: A tool to convert text strings to printed bars

This is GNU-barcode.
The package is meant to solve most needs in barcode creation with a conventional printer.
It can create printouts for the conventional product tagging standards: UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8, ISBN, as well as a few other formats.
Output is generated as either Postscript or Encapsulated Postscript (other back-ends may be added if needed).
