No matter how I tried "enscript -X koi8 -p test.ps russian-koi8.txt" on
Russian files, the resulting PostScript file is shown by GhostScript
with question marks instead of Russian characters.

I've also tried the ISO charset:

$ iconv -f koi8-r -t ISO-8859-5 < russian-koi8.txt > russian-iso.txt
$ enscript -X cyrillic -p test.ps russian-iso.txt
[ 3 pages * 1 copy ] left in test.ps
53 characters were missing
$

I still get the same question marks (I use gs's png driver to view the
resulting PostScript).
