gLabels v1.93.3. "gLabels is a feature-packed label-printing
application that's easy to use. It comes with an online manual that is
current as of version 1.93.2. The manual is well laid out and seems to be
nearly complete. For a beta (or developer version, if you prefer), gLabels
is in great shape. I'm recommending it for usage today to friends and
strangers alike. There are bugs to be squashed, I'm sure, but only a few,
and I'm looking forward to the 2.0 release in the near future. Kudos to Jim
Evins and the rest of the development crew for a job well done."

Hmm, I guess my custom PostScript program for printing my return address labels is nearly obsolete now.

I have one of those, too! Take solace in knowing that ours are surely more compact postscript. :)

Likewise my pile of shell script and TeX for printing CD labels.
(Does anyone not. have one of these? :) )

There are not. It is GUI tools that are obsolete.

A chain of a python script to prepare an input file, then LabelNation
(perl script from http://www.red-bean.com/labelnation/) produced
postscript file piped to ps2pdf still works better for pinting of
thousands of custom size labels for my lab's work, but gLabels surely has
come a long way since the last time I evaluated it. Kudos to the
developers and contributors!
