-postgr3- used to be available from UCLA's web site, not SSC:

If it isn't there now, it might be because they have dropped it, 
perhaps because newer commands do the job better. I know Phil Ender 
recently announced that -xi3- was disappearing, and maybe postgr3 
went with it. But Phil can offer the definitive opinion here.
